I know. I listed the canonical IANA source for everyone's /etc/services
rather than post mine too, it's more 'mine' agnostic that way, can't
argue with the source, only with out of date / divergent systems :)

I would guess that given the standard,  smtps is more likely to
be used than ssmtp. As is the case with the rest of the entire
BSD world...

Can't find the Debian repo online, I've little doubt it's the same.
