   When I have problems, I get mail from Let's Encrypt saying things like   
   "your cert is expiring in two weeks, did you know that?". That's why you   
   give them an email address during setup.   
      
   In my case, it's usually not because there is an issue with cron, but   
   because I have N names in one cert and I deleted the DNS record for one   
   of those and didn't update the LE config. They, quite rightly, don't   
   like to give out certs for names that don't resolve.
