This is my ssmtp.conf:

I probably should have included a tail of my /var/log/maillog file:
Jan 16 00:08:00 laptop sSMTP[6976]: Unable to connect to \
"mail.domain.org" port 25.
Jan 16 00:08:00 laptop sSMTP[6976]: Cannot open mail.domain.org:25
As with the previous message, the server name and local hostname have been
sanitized thus:
"laptop" is the local machine using ssmtp
"domain" is the domain of the email address and SMTP server
This might give you a clue:
smtp 25/tcp mail #Simple Mail Transfer
smtp 25/udp mail #Simple Mail Transfer
smtps 465/tcp #smtp protocol over TLS/SSL (was ssmtp)
smtps 465/udp #smtp protocol over TLS/SSL (was ssmtp)
Unless you've configured your MTA in a non-standard way, smtps is on port 465
not 25.
