It is possible that by doing this you have produced a suboptimal sources.list. You could show the content. -- Brian.

I edited the sources.list file to an example I found for Buster, replacing Buster with Bullseye. I know I've got some 'extra' lines in the sources.list file, I'll delete them next. Thank you, David.

Additionally, you can use sendmail, I can confirm that this works fine. :-)

Are you attempting to install onto the client or onto the server? > I am trying to add either ssmtp or msmtp, but these appear not to be in > the repositories. 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. This fails due to missing dependences, which I > don't appear to resolve. I suggest getting apt working will be a better approach. Anyway, that's all the advice I can give you and hopefully someone more familiar with your situation will assist you.
