I installed ssmtp using the new pkgng system, and the mailer.conf was not touched. The mailer.conf has to be changed manually to the following: sendmail /usr/local/sbin/ssmtp send-mail /usr/local/sbin/ssmtp mailq /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail newaliases /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail hoststat /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail purgestat /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail -- regards alex
