This is what I see on a standard 32bit installation here. root@kapop:~# cat /etc/debian_version 11.4 root@kapop:~# uname -a Linux kapop 5.10.0-16-686 #1 SMP Debian 5.10.127-1 (2022-06-30) i686 GNU/Linux root@kapop:~# apt update root@kapop:~# apt list msmtp ssmtp Listing... Done msmtp/stable 1.8.11-2.1 i386 ssmtp/stable 2.64-10 i386 So 32bit versions of msmtp and ssmtp are definitely available in the repository. Can you show the output you get for this command? cat /etc/apt/sources.list > I've tried adding ssmtp, downloaded from the Debian web site, and > installing it with dpkg.

Anyway, that's all the advice I can give you and hopefully someone more familiar with your situation will assist you.
