Yes. Unlike (port 25) smtp and (port 587) submission, the obsolete
and deprecated ssmtp service has no plain-text phase before the TLS
handshake.

This means that an obsolete and deprecated ssmtp server does not
send or receive any network data before the TLS handshake completes.

Considering that ssmtp was already obsolete and deprecated 10 years
ago when TLS was added to Postfix, I see no urgency to add new code
for it.
