Thank you, David, for the continued help. You were right to focus on the msmtpq 
script! And I'm sorry I didn't look there before. There is a simple option to 
set the script to quiet, which solves the issue.

I'm still struggling with the Content-Transfer-Encoding header and the 
"charset=utf-8" half of the Content-Type header, both of which I cannot get set 
in my emails, if anyone has any thoughts!

[PATCH] doc: define and use semantic markup for configuration items

[David Bremner]

This makes sure each configuration item is cross referenceable without
extra markup, and also adds index entries.
