How is it not working? What's in the logs?

There is nothing in /var/log/mail/ and I can't find anything in
/var/log/everything/.

mailwrapper or not shouldn't matter.

Ok, for some reason I thought mailwrapper provided the sendmail binary.

You need to configure ssmtp. Did you do so?

Looking over /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf, it seems like I need to configure
the mailhub variable?  I want to make sure I'm setting up as simple a
system for getting this elog mail out as possible.  Do I need to
specify some kind of an SMTP server to get it sent?  I thought this
thread was saying using SMTP was optional.  I'm pretty confused.
