Dave,
Just for info, I performed the install you suggested. Thanks! It did
place the cron file in cron.daily, and the output is directed to
/var/log/meclog, not an email to root.

yum install mcelog
this installs a cronjob, that when run each hour, checks for events
that have occured, and if anything happened, the output gets sent
as an email to root.
