I have run into the same problem with the new msmtp. According to their change log, requiring the tls_trust_file is a new change designed to make the default behavior more secure. Their documentation says that debian has a package for the tls_cert_file "ca-cert", IIRC. I have been unable to generate/obtain a trust file myself and have disabled the cert check temporarily until I can figure out a solution. I started a thread on the bbs, http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=32049 but have gotten no responses, so I'm also interested in a solution.
