MAILTO=cron@domain.ca

*/20 * * * * /usr/bin/wget http://list.domain.ca/admin/consume.php >/dev/null

 

thats what the crontab is setup todo, so basically every 20minutes it runs consume.php

 

In my root directory, i'm getting files like this:

consume.php

consume.php1

consume.php2

i woke up this morning with 24emails and consume.php1 - consume.php24

 

can someone please tell me why it's doing this and/or how to stop it.
