This means that my ssmtp.conf file was irrelevant, because sSMTP wasn't being used to send emails at all anyway. The relevant lines for mailer.conf, in case someone later on stumbles across this thread looking for a solution to the same problem, are: sendmail /usr/local/sbin/ssmtp send-mail /usr/local/sbin/ssmtp mailq /usr/local/sbin/ssmtp newaliases /usr/local/sbin/ssmtp hoststat /usr/local/sbin/ssmtp purgestat /usr/local/sbin/ssmtp If this email gets through to the list, consider my problem solved and myself suitably chagrined at having overlooked something that should have been so obvious to me. --=20 Chad Perrin [ original content licensed OWL: http://owl.apotheon.org ] --a8Wt8u1KmwUX3Y2C Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.13 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAkqxfGEACgkQ9mn/Pj01uKW1aACbB7mXNCJXQyb6jHzwRLq7ZWXF LCkAn2yFEJEM3DanbUFmZL4B9VK3PmOT =hoqH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --a8Wt8u1KmwUX3Y2C--
