No, but you can check with a test mail in debug mode:
$ echo -e "Subject: Test\n\nTest" | msmtp --debug -- you@...45...

Note that msmtp never sends cleartext passwords unless you force it 
by explicitly setting "auth plain" or "auth login". If msmtp cannot find a
non-cleartext authentication method, it aborts with "cannot use a secure
authentication method" by default.
