 the steps described in Section 27.7 should cover other
 installation methods
 than ports, or at least give a hint. 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
 
 

Hello Alex,

Thank you for the suggestion. An example has been added in r44820.

Cheers,

Dru
