Description Ville Skyttä 2014-01-18 18:00:06 UTC

TLS_CA_File should have a default value in the code or its definition in ssmtp.conf be uncommented by default. It doesn't hurt to have it when not using TLS, and it is now seemingly required if TLS is in use.

Previously my ssmtp was using TLS and working but when it got upgraded to a version that added the verification functionality, it no longer succeeded in sending anything because TLS_CA_File is now required for TLS to work, and it didn't have a valid default value after package upgrade.

Comment 3 Ville Skyttä 2014-01-18 20:06:58 UTC

BTW uncommenting the value is only a slight improvement because it won't take effect if the new config file gets installed as *.rpmnew which is quite likely. Better would be to have a default in code.

Comment 4 manuel wolfshant 2014-01-19 22:41:01 UTC

I'll examine the code and try to see how well it works to also add a default value for TLS_CA_file via the TLS patch.
