Wanting to tunnel msmtp through ssh, I tried this in my ~/.msmtprc:

from username1@mydomain.net ssh -l john -L 9999:mydomain.net:25 username1@mydomain.net -N -f host localhost port 9999

Don't know if it will help but perhaps you need a preconnect command:

preconnect "ssh -l john -L 9999:mydomain.net:25 username1@mydomain.net -N -f sleep 5"
