I can't see this being possible, since ssmpt only sends mail, it cannot
receive it, and it does not understand queues either.   MailScanner depends
on the MTA to both receive incoming mail and deliver outgoing mail, and MS
simply moves stuff between two queues in the middle.

So, it doesn't look to me like ssmtp is going to do what you want.
