The current default mta in gentoo - ssmtp - has a more or less dead upstream and has some outstanding bugs. It is prudent to change our default mta.
Both mail-mta/nullmailer and mail-mta/msmtp are lightweight good mtas.
Both packages have active development and provide AUTH and SSL/TLS
support.
Our current mta list is:
mail-mta/ssmtp
mail-mta/courier
rest of the list
...
As net-mail herd, we would like to have the following mta list:
mail-mta/nullmailer
mail-mta/msmtp
mail-mta/ssmtp
rest of the list
...
If there are no objections, the above change will be committed in ~10
days.
