I have been trying to send emails with ssmtp through my outlook account.
I followed this page and this is what I have inside ssmtp.conf:
root=myemail@outlook.com
mailhub=smtp-mail.outlook.com:587
AuthUser=myemail@outlook.com
AuthPass=mypassword
UseTLS=YES
UseSTARTTLS=YES
rewriteDomain=outlook.com
hostname=myemail@outlook.com
FromLineOverride=YES
But when I want o test ssmtp, like by typing this in the terminal:
ssmtp destination@gmail.com
nothing happens, and the terminal freezes. Any clue where I can start debugging this?

I presume the terminal isn't frozen butssmtp
awaits your input (mail content) in its stdin. Type a few words and hit CTRL-D to end your message.

Thanks, you are right. It was not frozen, but I still could not send emails. I switched to postfix and it seems to be working now.
