No, that is currently not possible because the command line can be seen by other users and processes. With some shells, you can work around this by creating a configuration file on the fly: msmtp -C <(echo "account default"; echo "user ..."; echo "password ..."; ...) -- ... A good solution for GUI environments is to use keyrings. Currently only the keyrings of GNOME and MacOS are supported. I don't know if Windows has something similar. Yet another solution would be to let emacs prompt msmtp for the password (this works in a terminal), but this is probably not easy. Mutt does not allow this, either.
