Typical msmtprc for Gmail:
#############################################
# don't change any of these for gmail acounts
defaults
timeout 120
account gmailacc
tls on
tls_starttls on
tls_certcheck off
host smtp.gmail.com
port 587
auth on
from yourAcc@...20...
user yourAcc@...20...
password 12345
# Set a default account
# You need to set a default account for Mail
account default : gmailacc
# end msmtprc
#############################################
The tls_certcheck off would probably be frowned upon but I couldn't get things to work with it On.
msmtprc doesn't have to be in root, you can place it anywhere, just tell msmtp where it is with --file
--file=/home/MySettingsFolder/msmtprc.txt

read the documentation as manpage via "man msmtp" or online at
http://msmtp.sourceforge.net/documentation.html

msmtp does not handle desktops. You need desktop tool that will call msmtp.
Anonymous? You apparently want something different.
...when you have desktop, you apparently don't need msmtp but any desktop
mail client instead.

msmtp can only send mail. you can provide it google authentication
>Is it possible .msmptrc can be placed it in /root ?
yes. But don't log to your desktop as root.
