ssmtp in unstable supports TLS and certificate based AUTH (so you can authenticate on a per machine basis for relay). It appears to have AUTH CRAM-MD5 support, but it's unclear if that's distributable (according to comments in the source). It also has AUTH LOGIN support (on a per user basis, via the -au and -ap command line options). So, you could use mutt, if you wanted to backport ssmtp from unstable (which I have done, and it's pretty easy to do). M
