It is very common for port 25 to be blocked, however in many cases it is possible to communicate over port 465 (SSL) or 587 (TLS). You can do a quick test using netcat or telnet: $ nc smtp.gmail.com 587 If you are able to connect, then setting up git-send-email is straightforward; see the example at the end of https://git-scm.com/docs/git-send-email. > Is it possible to fork u-boot on Git[HL][au]b or similar hosting site, > and then send an email to the list pointing at the commit? I have not used it myself, but git.sr.ht offers such functionality: https://man.sr.ht/git.sr.ht/#sending-patches-upstream https://spacepub.space/w/ad258d23-0ac6-488c-83fc-2bacf578de3a Regards, Ralph
