Just tested and this does work for me (be sure to replace USER and PASSWORD):

# grep ^PORTAGE_ELOG_MAILURI /etc/make.conf
PORTAGE_ELOG_MAILURI="USER@gmail.com /usr/sbin/sendmail"

# grep -v ^#\\\|^$ /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf
root=postmaster
mailhub=smtp.gmail.com:465
AuthUser=USER@gmail.com
AuthPass=PASSWORD
UseTLS=YES

Note, however, that this setup requires that you use portage 2.1.1. In other
words use the latest ~ARCH portage.

# eix -e ssmtp -e portage -c
[I] mail-mta/ssmtp (2.61-r2): Extremely simple MTA to get mail off the system to a Mailhub
[I] sys-apps/portage (2.1.1_rc1-r4): The Portage Package Management System. The primary package management and distribution system for Gentoo.

Completely shameless plug:

might be helpful in this case.
