Forget about ssmtp! Really. As you just realize it's not easy to use and if you want to send files it's not useable at all, since it has a limit of mails <= 4k size.
The above size limit is not quite true. From the ssmtp man page, we have the following:
Header size is limited to 4K and a max of 100 addresses.
Note that I have used ssmtp for years, sent thousands of messages through it, and *never* bumped up against the above limitations.
Hmmm, yes, your right. But it's not possible to send mails like this:
$ mailfile -adr tino dot lange at isg dot de curl-7.9.8.tar.gz sendmail: Header too large Max is 4000 characters
