I have been having problems with same, but using a "real" mail server
(for your [EMAIL PROTECTED] I assume you're using default postfix install,
am I right?)

I saw the error when a package finished its emerge, then portage told
me that there was a problem with AUTH...
Please, take a look after a package is compiled (not installed) to look
for any special message.
And also, take a look into postfix log file...
