Created attachment 166879
  --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=166879&action=edit
a patch to the existing patch for ssmtp.c file

The bug appears when a '#' is used in values of variables in the config file.
For example, using the following password:

AuthPass=my#password

will cause that everything beyond # to be ignored as a comment.

The patch attached adds a check for '=' character: if it appears before '#' do
not ignore '#' and the followed characters.
