ok, thanks! vcron tries to sent to port 25 though, and ssmtp doesn't run as a daemon. Know where I cat set it so that it uses /sur/sbin/ssmtp?
`man ssmpt` says: ssmtp is a send-only sendmail emulator... It accepts a mail stream on *STANDARD INPUT* with recipients specified on the command line and synchronously forwards the message to the mail transfer agent of a mailhub for the mailhub MTA to process.
`emerge -c ssmpt && emerge postfix` will allow your local /usr/bin/sendmail to recieve on port 25.
I believe I have used SSMTP to forward root's mail to a non-local POP3 mailbox, such as [EMAIL PROTECTED] - edit /etc/ssmtp.conf.
