Stephen,
That syntax I *think* should work, but might normally be written:
HOST=HomePC2 SERVICE=rdp COLOR=red MAIL stephenwong1015 at gmail.com DURATION>5
If neither works, you might want to check the $MAIL variable, making sure /bin/mailx (or whatever it's set to) is working. Also, proper working of your local mailer, etc....
HTH,
