Package: ssmtp
  Version: 2.62-3,2.64-1

  ssmtp does not replace the "From" with what is given
  by the configuration file. If I define "[email protected]"
  all mail for user-id beyond 1000 shall go to user
  "[email protected]". But instead I find all mail for
  users beyond 1000 going to "[email protected]" this
  clearly wrong.
  Here is my ssmtp.conf:
    [email protected]
    mailhub=mail.vr-web.de
    rewritedomain=vr-web.de
    FromLineOverride=NO
    UseTLS=yes
    UseSTARTTLS=yes
    AuthUser=xxx
    AuthPass=xxx
    AuthMethod=AUTH-PLAIN

  Sending mail to "root" on localhost gives:
    Delivered-To: [email protected]
    Return-Path: <[email protected]>
    Received: from mx0.vr-web.de
      (vrwf103.vrweb.de [::ffff:192.168.27.6])
      by loc.vr-web.de with esmtp;

  I would expect the header to be:
    Delivered-To: [email protected]
    Return-Path: <[email protected]>
    Received: from mx0.vr-web.de
      (vrwf103.vrweb.de [::ffff:192.168.27.6])

  It is just some special configuration at my providers
  site making the mail being send to me not to the real
  "[email protected]". ssmtp failing to rewrite "To:"
  correctly will, if not special precautions where done
  mail had been gone to my providers "root"-address. Not
  what was intended!

  I suggest replacing "To:" correctly with what is
  configured in the configuration file. I could find
  this with ssmtp on

  Debian GNU/Linux experimental, testing, stable
  FreeBSD 5, 6, 7, 8, HEAD
  Ubuntu 9.04, 9.10, 10.04

  for me it looks like ssmtp is badly broken at the time
  being!
