Hi all,
I used to have mail sent to my internet account for uploading with my 
normal mail without having an mta installed. For some time now I have had 
the header sent but no body to the mail.
The guide I followed was the wilki tips but this now says that:-
Note: Starting with Portage 2.1.1, it is possible to 
specify /usr/sbin/sendmail in the PORTAGE_ELOG_MAILURI. This will make 
Portage use /usr/sbin/sendmail to send out the mail. Because of this, the 
TIP is now obsolete!

I have change make.conf to reflect this i.e.
PORTAGE_ELOG_MAILURI="recipient@example.net /usr/sbin/sendmail" but now I 
don't even get the header sent to me.

Is their a guide with step by step instructions so I can get this working 
again?
I have tried various options as listed in make.conf.examples but without 
success.
Any suggestions?
Paul
