if your mail server supports and authentication method that can be
performed via SASL, then you can manage to not input a password.
I personally run a Kerberos realm and use Postfix for my MTA, which
supports Kerberos via GSSAPI. msmtp has support for GSSAPI via libgsasl.
stick it all together and I get secure authentication without the need
of placing my password in my .mstmprc file once I have authenticated to
my KDC.
later.
