Yes, the error message means: no permisssion to execute /usr/bin/lynx.
Check the permisssions, they should be 755 (-rwxr-xr-x) and the file
should be owned by root. But it would be a big surprise, if it were
different. If the permissions are OK the error message is strange,
because cron normally runs as root. Check that with
"ps aux | grep cron".

Can you try the cron command on a shell?

If you have no shell access, ask your provider for assistance.

Until then you could set up the same/similar cronjob on some different
machine you have access to, as it is totally unimportant which browser
actually requests the mailer.php script.

regards, Georg
