I have a small LAN with three PCs. One PC runs exim, but the other two
use ssmtp. On the two that don't use exim I frequently see errors
similar to the following when portage tries to send mail:
camille etc # glsa-check -m 200610-14
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/glsa-check", line 316, in ?
portage_mail.send_mail(glsaconfig, mymessage)
File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage_mail.py", line 87, in send_mail
raise portage_exception.PortageException("!!! A network error
occured while trying to send logmail:\n"+str(e)+"\nSure you configured
PORTAGE_ELOG_MAILURI correctly?")
portage_exception.PortageException: !!! A network error occured while
trying to send logmail:
(111, 'Connection refused')
Sure you configured PORTAGE_ELOG_MAILURI correctly?
Here's my make.conf:
camille etc # cat /etc/make.conf

michael:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:baby.espersunited.com
root:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:baby.espersunited.com
postmaster:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:baby.espersunited.com
portage:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:baby.espersunited.com
And my ssmtp.conf:
camille etc # cat /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf
#
# /etc/ssmtp.conf -- a config file for sSMTP sendmail.
#
# The person who gets all mail for userids < 1000
# Make this empty to disable rewriting.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
# The place where the mail goes. The actual machine name is required
# no MX records are consulted. Commonly mailhosts are named
mail.domain.com
# The example will fit if you are in domain.com and your mailhub is so
named.
mailhub=baby.espersunited.com
# Example for SMTP port number 2525
# mailhub=mail.your.domain:2525
# Example for SMTP port number 25 (Standard/RFC)
# mailhub=mail.your.domain
# Example for SSL encrypted connection
# mailhub=mail.your.domain:465
# Where will the mail seem to come from?
rewriteDomain=camille.espersunited.com
# The full hostname
camille.espersunited.com
# Gentoo bug #47562
# Commenting the following line will force ssmtp to figure
# out the hostname itself.
#hostname=<username>@camille.espersunited.com
# Set this to never rewrite the "From:" line (unless not given) and to
# use that address in the "from line" of the envelope.
#FromLineOverride=YES
# Use SSL/TLS to send secure messages to server.
#UseTLS=YES
# Use SSL/TLS certificate to authenticate against smtp host.

What am I doing wrong?
