Current SSMTP ebuild DOESN'T support SSL connections. I've actived them by doing some little changes: First is to add a econf --enable-ssl line into the ssmtp-2.48.ebuild. Then you have to patch the net.c and Makefile.in I've attached all files (both patches and the ebuild) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Created attachment 11798 [details] ssmtp-2.48-r1.ebuild (WITH SSL PATCHES)
Created attachment 11799 [details, diff] net.c.diff
Created attachment 11800 [details, diff] Makefile.in.diff
This makes no sense, there is a new ssmtp version: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21823 here is the bug.
