mail/ssmtp: mailer.conf instruction in handbook differs from pkg-message

[Marko Cupać]

Hi,

I have recently changed MTA on some hosts to mail/ssmtp, following
instruction from handbook:

[https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/mail-changingmta.html]

Handbook instructs to put the following lines in mailer.conf:

sendmail        /usr/local/sbin/ssmtp
send-mail       /usr/local/sbin/ssmtp
mailq           /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail
newaliases      /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail
hoststat        /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail
purgestat       /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail

However, pkg-message of mail/ssmtp gives different instruction:

ssmtp-2.64_1:
Always:
sSMTP has been installed successfully.

To replace sendmail with ssmtp type "make replace" or change 
your /etc/mail/mailer.conf to:

sendmail	/usr/local/sbin/ssmtp
send-mail	/usr/local/sbin/ssmtp
mailq		/usr/local/sbin/ssmtp
newaliases	/usr/local/sbin/ssmtp
hoststat	/usr/bin/true
purgestat	/usr/bin/true

Are they both correct, or one of them needs to be updated?
