Re: FW: ssmtp with multiple email accounts

Could it simply be that mutt does not expand the "~" in the filename when
passing the command-line option?  Did you try the absolute path (i.e.,
"/usr/bin/ssmtp -C/home/user/foo.conf")?

ssmtp does not attempt any expansion on the argument. If the shell doesn't expand it before passing it off to ssmtp, then it doesn't get expanded: so "-C~/foo.conf" would cause ssmtp to try to open a file named "foo.conf" in the subdirectory "~" of the current directory.
