crontab email not working



HI list
 I am new to Debian and I am having trouble with crontab- I can't for the life of me seem to figure out how to get it to send me an email.
I did the crontab - e thing and
set up something like the following

MAILTO=email@emailaddress.com
*/8 * * * * wget http://www.whatismyip.com/automation/n09230945.asp

from this all I get is a series of files in my home folder.

Where to I set up the emailing part for cron?
