ssmtp stopped working with a conventional password when Google
introduced 2-

Step-Verification for their GMail account.  Consequently, to be able to
continue using ssmtp you need to set up an 'App Password' and use the 16-

character password generated by Google to login:
 https://support.google.com/mail/answer/185833

It used to be the case you could set up an 'App Password' without having
to
provide them with your phone number and other 'none-of-their-business'
personal information, but for some years now they have been asking for
more
information to allow you to complete setting up 'App Password' for your
Google account(s) and device(s).

I also tried the 16 character password method too.  It still didn't work. 

In this case the ssmtp package has outlived its usefulness.  It was always 
limited in what characters it would accept and parse as a password.  It's 
abandonware since 2019 - debian recommends to use msmtp:

https://wiki.debian.org/sSMTP


I removed ssmtp and installed msmtp.  I think I got the config set up but it is different so I may not have it right.  It doesn't work tho.  From messages.
