Subject: [exim] ssmtp with exim as a client
Hi,

given an exim host that is on a cluelessly configured network. Both
ports 25 and 587 are blocked, but 465 is open, and a smarthost
allowing ssmtp is available.

In the spec, I have not found a way to have exim - as a client - send
a message through an smtps sessio which has immediate encryption
instead of going through the STARTTLS motions.

Can exim be configured to allow ssmtp when operating as a client?

Greetings
Marc
