Nov 16 03:53:15 fwunit1.private.releng.scl3.mozilla.com postfix/postdrop[14057]: warning: uid=2918: File too large
Nov 16 03:53:15 fwunit1.private.releng.scl3.mozilla.com postfix/sendmail[14055]: fatal: root(2918): message file too big

Most likely, the crontask output should just say "good" or "bad", with the details left to the person trying to fix.
If possible I'd advocate for something like:

Passed Tests: 1200
Failed Tests:
 * test_aws_masters_to_product_delivery
 * test_scl3_masters_to_product_delivery

(aka: list the tests that failed, not the innermost details of them)

That can give us actionable, "what may have broken" without giving us lots of contextual spam that clogs postfix/inboxes.
Sounds good -- want to write up a nosetests plugin to do that?

Never wrote one, and have a lot of other priorities on my plate atm, but I'm not opposed to it; just would fall waaay down on my list of tasks atm.
