I’d bother removing it but it’s kinda funny to get an email reprimanding me when I ctrl+c out of a sudo command I mistyped, and maybe it will serve as a warning if it gets compromised :p
I thought it’s just a joke because I only had it on local PCs. Imagine my reaction when I actually got an email by an admin when using sudo on a network…

TL;DR: it’s supposed to send email to an administrator, but by default on some distros (including Ubuntu), it isn’t actually sent anywhere.
omg I totally accidentally enabled this
