<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
12.0pt'>I don't have that plugin in my listing, which I thought was kind
of odd but I guess that check_ssmtp = Secure SMTP. Further research has found
that the check_ssmtp plugin is the check_tcp plugin yet forces the -S (SSL)
check. Which explains a lot. I guess I could just use check_tcp unless
someone can tell me where to get check_smtp from, since I thought I downloaded
the latest version of the nagios plugins.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
