and was put under the GPL in version 2.1.
Version 2.1 was maintained by Christophe Lameter.
Versions up to version 2.0 were maintained by David Collier-Brown

You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License with
your Debian GNU/Linux system, in /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL, or with
the ssmtp source package as the file COPYING. If not, write to the Free

-----------------------
Well, there is no GPL in version 2.1. :-(
Trying to find out the actual license of of ssmtp, hoping to find "GPL,
... either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later
version." I stumbled in a mess.
- COPYING contains GPLv2.
- The c-sourcecode files are either:
* GPLv2+
* "For license terms, see the file COPYING in this directory."
* "See COPYRIGHT for the license"
* public domain
- There is no file named COPYRIGHT in the source.
Could you please doublecheck whether ssmtp is GPLv2 or GPLv2+ and
fix debian/copyright accordingly?
If it is indeed GPLv2 ssmtp cannot use continue using gnutls-openssl
in the future, the gnutls-openssl license has changed to GPLv3 which
is not compatible with GPLv2.
