Package: msmtp
Version: 1.8.1-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

  A few days ago, msmtp fails to work.  It all seems to be related to the
inability to read ~/.msmtprc file.  In other words it seems that
~/.msmtprc needs to have mode 644.  This is not at all desired since
sensible (private) information can be included in that file. The package
msmtp should run  with no trouble when the user configuration file
~/.msmtprc has mode 600.
  
  I am sending you some useful output so that you can check the relevance of the
situation (please note that I tried playing with stable, testing and sid
versions of msmtp and I get the same output -this lead me to think whether
the problem is with msmtp or with some other related package):


>>>>>>>>>

sergio@quetzalli:~$ echo "Hello World" | msmtp -d ser...@mendozza.org
ignoring system configuration file /etc/msmtprc: No such file or directory
ignoring user configuration file /home/sergio/.msmtprc: Permission denied
falling back to default account
msmtp: account default not found: no configuration file available

>>>>>>>>>>>>

  As such, the bug leaves the package fully unusable.

Cheers,

Sergio.
