>Description:
The sSMTP port (mail/ssmtp) uses 2 configuration files:
revaliases
ssmtp.conf
These are expected in /usr/local/etc/ssmtp.

Although there is a man page for ssmtp(8), there are none for these
configuration files.

Herewith I request man pages are added for these configuration files.

Since sSMTP is mentioned in the FreeBSD Handbook:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/outgoing-only.html
I consider these man pages more important than small tools which are not
mentioned in the Handbook.

This could possibly be 'delegated' to the developers, at Debian.

man ssmtp
man ssmtp.conf
man revaliases
