Well, in the meantime 1.4.14 is out without the 'tls_security' command.

The reason is that I received absolutely no feedback on this issue (see
also 
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=20071111172006.GA1732%40wile.lambers.home&forum_name=msmtp-users),
so I hoped that most server configurations were updated and/or nobody
really cares about this.

Newer GnuTLS versions have a function gnutls_priority_init() that allows
to set session parameters via a user supplied string. Once this function
supports setting the Diffie Hellman size (see
http://trac.gnutls.org/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/ticket/29), we could add a new
command 'tls_parameters' or something similar that allows a user to
tweak all session parameters, including the required Diffie Hellman
size. Then we would not need to change msmtp when the next GnuTLS
release has stricter default requirements for some other parameter.

I think that should be the goal for 1.4.15, but I currently don't have
the time to work on the GnuTLS patch.

Regards,
Martin
