I recently tried out Secure MTA, a daemon that specializes in SMTP passwords and acts as a starter for ssmtp or msmtp. This software comes with a variety of options to make the user's experience more customizable, such as the ability to run in daemon function, listen to a specific number (defaulting to 2), and choose a timer (defaulting to 0, or deactivated). If you want to run this program in the background, you also have the option to use the -b command.

In addition to these functionalities, Secure MTA offers a variety of other options, including closing a daemon, using a Unix socket (defaulting to /home/bakunin/.smta.sock), or choosing whether to run msmtp or ssmtp.

If you need help using this software, there's always the -h command to bring up help menus, which give you information on options like daemon function, listening number, timer, and various other features.

In terms of usage, I found that Secure MTA was easy to run in daemon mode; you simply ask the password and accept requests to the Unix socket. If you want to use msmtp instead, you can connect to the Secure MTA daemon and launch it that way.

Overall, I found Secure MTA to be a useful tool for managing SMTP passwords and keeping your email secure. One downside is that it can take a bit of time to set up, but once you get the hang of it, it's a very solid piece of software that can make a real difference in both your professional and personal email communications. One thing to note is that the man pages have been updated with this release, and there is also a bugfix for the Unix socket path.
