The*problem* with this is that it appears there's no way to make a file

What's the best way to deal with this situation?
I feel your pain! Several years ago already I started a nullmailer
service for Guix - and never finished it for similar reasons.
(nullmailer expects the password being part of the config file.)
I'm afraid, the only solution is to create a service which generates the
config at boot time from a file containing the password and some
template (or guile data structure). The password file would not be part
of the Guix system definition. Anyhow I'm not aware of any example, sorry.
Please let me know if you implement something like this as I'd like to
eventally finish the nullmailer service :-)
