Thanks to your responses on this list, ssmpt is now running. I still haven't got the 
headers configured, which is what I wanted to do by installing ssmtp. I have a small 
network, with the domainname of beechtree-its (no dot-com on the internal network). 
This is because Windows machines will not take a domainname longer than 15 characters.
I sent a simple test message to myself, and the message is coming from 
workstation.beechtree-its.
This is pretty much unacceptable. (security as well as functionality). I put the 
header from that test message below if it is needed.

What I would like to do is have the mail coming from [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead 
of [EMAIL PROTECTED] I figure the place to do this is either in 
Muttrc or ssmtp.conf.
Any help is much appreciated.
TIA
