No, I think it simply means that there is no software which can e-mail the output of the cron runs. Perhaps it needs such software to be able to even store the output in a local mailbox (/var/spool/mail/), which I thought is what would happen if no username-to-e-mail mapping is in /etc/aliases for the user in question... You might wish to install "exim4-daemon-light" to enable basic e-mail functionality. And then edit /etc/aliases to create a username-to-e-mail mapping for the user you execute the cron job as. And also edit /etc/email-addresses to create a similar mapping there, so that e-mails will get a correct From: line.
