What kind of includeIf are you using? Does it work with an
unconditional include? This seems to work for me:

  $ git config --global include.path one
  $ git config --file ~/one sendemail.smtpserver one.example.com
  $ git send-email --dry-run -1 --to nobody | grep ^Server
  Server: one.example.com

  $ git config --global includeIf.gitdir:$PWD/.path two
  $ git config --file ~/two sendemail.smtpserver two.example.com
  $ git send-email --dry-run -1 --to nobody | grep ^Server
  Server: two.example.com

I.e. both unconditional and gitdir includes work for me. If you do
something similar, what output do you get?

Thanks for this output. That rules out that "git config" is somehow
misbehaving in a way that normal internal config lookups wouldn't.

The rest of git-config should behave the same, but you could also try:

  git config --get sendemail.smtpserver

which is what send-email will actually run (you can run send-email with
GIT_TRACE=1 to see the full set of commands if you want to try them
manually).
