On multiuser systems: yes, because everyone else can look at your command
line, e.g. via ps or /proc//cmdline.

Hello,
I've noticed that many unix tools require that a user
specify account passwords in config files.
To me, this seems like a terrible idea, and indeed
msmtp at least prompts for a password when it needs
one.
However, what if I don't want msmtp to prompt me? For
instance, it seems reasonable
