+1 to getting rid of ssmtp. But I'm not sure that msmtp is the best |
| 10 |
replacement. |

One of the greatest things that bugs me about ssmtp is that if the |
| 13 |
mailserver is not available, it hangs for a while, and then it loses the |
| 14 |
email. |

Where I need a simple mail relay, I've gone with nullmailer instead, |
| 17 |
because it supports the features, and it explicitly has a lightweight |
| 18 |
daemon mode that queues mail to send. |
