patched ssmtp based on ssmtp 2.64

sSMTP - Simple SMTP

sSMTP is a simple MTA to deliver mail from a computer to a mail hub (SMTP server). sSMTP is simple and lightweight, there are no daemons or anything hogging up CPU; Just sSMTP. Unlike Exim4, sSMTP does not receive mail, expand aliases, or manage a queue.

Setting up sSMTP

sSMTP's main configuration file is located at ssmtp.conf

Using sSMTP with Gmail

Using sSMTP with Gmail is simple, you just have to change a few options around and add in TLS encryption and change Google's server to port 587

Add to revaliases

root:[email protected]:smtp.gmail.com:587

and to ssmtp.conf

# The user that gets all the mails (UID < 1000, usually the admin)
root=*YOURNAME*@gmail.com

# The mail server (where the mail is sent to), both port 465 or 587 should be acceptable
# See also https://support.google.com/mail/answer/78799
mailhub=smtp.gmail.com:587

# The address where the mail appears to come from for user authentication.
rewriteDomain=gmail.com

# The full hostname
hostname=localhost

# Use SSL/TLS before starting negotiation
UseTLS=Yes
UseSTARTTLS=Yes

# Username/Password
AuthUser=*YOURNAME*@gmail.com
AuthPass=*yourpasswort*
AuthMethod=LOGIN

# Email 'From header's can override the default domain?
FromLineOverride=yes
