[Buildbot-devel] problem with custom mail formatter

Hi all, sorry if this is a dumb question, I've read the docs but I'm new to this build bot thing.

In my master.cfg, I have:

def mail_formatter(mode, name, build, results, master_status):    
	log.msg('Calling mail formatter')
	# other code to create body, type, subject, and return dictionary obj

c['status'].append(mail.MailNotifier(fromaddr="xxx",
                            relayhost="mail.xxx.com", smtpUser="xx", smtpPassword="xx",
                            extraRecipients=['xxx'],
                            messageFormatter=mail_formatter))

So... I was hoping that when it sends mail it would call my mail_formatter function. But it doesn't, it just calls it's default one and I get the default message.

Any ideas what I'm missing? Many thanks...
