Yes, and it was much easier to setup than exim.  Here is my config --
hopefully it will save you some time if you decide to use msmtp :-)

<msmtp-config>
# Set default values for all following accounts.
defaults
tls on
tls_trust_file ~/.ca-certificates.crt
tls_key_file ~/.gnutls.key
tls_cert_file ~/.gnutls.cert
tls_starttls off
logfile ~/msmtp.log

# gmail
account gmail
host smtp.gmail.com
port 465
from myAccount at gmail.com
auth plain
user myAccount
password myPassword

# Set a default account
account default : gmail
</msmtp-config>
