I am running

/usr/sbin/logwatch

and it prints it output to stdout. Why if MailTo parameter is set in config file.

If I do

/usr/sbin/logwatch --mailto MYEMAIL

it works, but why? What is the purpose of MailTo config parameter then?

The purpose that MailTo parameter is set on the configuration file is to serve for the daemon itself, for example to send log reports periodically.
