few tips:

1) mv doc/wmmail.man doc/wmmail.1
   doman doc/wmmail.1

   consider using 'newman' instead of ^^^
   newman doc/wmmail.man wmmail.1

2) 'die' after emake and econf is not required. A default one is already 
    defined in ebuild.sh. Indeed, src_compile() can be omitted here.

3) in src_install() the cd "${D}" thing is not required. Portage automatically 
   cd's in ${S}

4) use einstall instead of 'make DESTDIR="${D}" install || die'

Hey, Thanks for the advice :), but all I did was change the variables and symlink,
because whomever wrote and submitted the previous ebuild obviously did it
without even testing it.

THANKS
Brad Cowan
