ssmtp says cannot open mailhub:25, but I have 465 set as port...
 
I opened a yahoo account to try out ssmtp, and I used the normal (not Plus) settings here.

Despite this being my input into /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf, however, an error message always comes saying ssmtp: cannot open mailhub:25

Code:
root=mattslunt@yahoo.com
mailhub=smtp.mail.yahoo.com:465
AuthUser=mattslunt.com
AuthPass=*******
UseSTARTTLS=yes
UseTLS=yes
FromLineOverride=yes

Is your user a member of the mail group, and if so, did you log out and back in again after adding the user account to that group?
