Cronjob output file permissions

I can't figure out where the umask for my cronjobs is set.
in my .login and .profie I have umask = 077 (I'm in ksh)
but my cronjob output all comes out like 022.
even if I put 'umask 077' in the shell file running in cron, the resulting
files still come out like 022.
anybody have any ideas.
