Description of problem:
ABRT detected a problem
SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/ssmtp from 'create' accesses on the file .

*****  Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests   **************************

If you believe that ssmtp should be allowed create access on the  file by default.
Then you should report this as a bug.
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
Do
allow this access for now by executing:
# grep sendmail /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp
