You need to tell your mailer about ssmtp, or if it knows about
sendmail you might be able to link ssmtp to /usr/bin/sendmail.
If using mutt then in your .muttrc put:
set sendmail="/usr/sbin/ssmtp"
Since you have a school account, you might try what I do which is to
access sendmail via ssh. Set up ssh so you can run a command on your
school account w/o passwd using ssh-agent I think. Then in .muttrc put
something like this:
set sendmail="/usr/bin/ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/lib/sendmail"
