[kde-linux] kcron and mailto

One box runs a backup via kcron each day, but the user rarely checks his 
email.  I want the messages to come to me, so that they are checked 
regularly.  I am aliased to receive root's mail, but the messages are sent to 
the user.  I've tried setting the MAILTO in kcronrc, but that doesn't seem to 
work.  I've tried adding it to the backup script, but that doesn't work 
either.  Someone advised me to add it to the person's crontab, but I can't 
find anything other than kcronrc - maybe I'm looking for the wrong thing.  
Any advice, please?
