Description:  msmtp-scripts are scripts wrappers around the msmtp SMTP client that
 add queueing, logging to syslog or file, and a subset of sendmail/postfix
 mailq/postsuper/postqueue commands implemented in a compatible fashion.
 This package provides sendmail, mailq, postfix,
 and postsuper symlinks to wrappers that configure
 msmtpq-ng for use as the system mail transport
 agent via the sendmail command.
 
 **NB**: In order for msmtpq-ng-mta aka sendmail to
 send mail for non-root users (not just queue it
 after failing), the user must have permissions to
 access /etc/msmtprc -- package msmtp sets msmtprc
 to rw only by root by default as a security measure
 (it _can_ contain information like passwords with
 which to send mail through your email server).
 
 There are a couple of choices.  One is to leave
 the default permissions (in which cases the mail
 will queue and fail to send until the mailq -q
 runner which runs in a root crontab sends the mail).
 Another is to give any non-root daemon users (or
 any other users) group access (i.e. create a
 group for all the users who should be able to
 send mail, add the users to it, and give the
 group read-only permissions on the msmtrpc).
 A final option (which is only resonable if you
 have no secrets in msmtprc because you are
 sending unauthenticated mail to a server that
 accepts mail directly for the intended user --
 usually that means a self-hosted system mail
 server, rather than trying to send mail to
 public servers (which don't typically accept
 mail from normal user IP addresses, even if
 you ISP doesn't block the traffic) is to
 make msmtprc world readable.
 
 The first option is probably the best choice
 for most users, as it just means a 15
 minute delay in the mail getting off the
 system, and doesn't involve special permissions
 for non-root daemons or users.
