Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: git-core

I have made the necessary settings for SMTP authentication in
~/.gitconfig.  git-send-email works fine when I give the SMTP
credentials on the command line via --smtp-user, etc., but apparently
fails to read the value from the config file.  My server will then
reject the mail relay.

$ git config --list|cut -f 1 -d "="|grep sendsendemail.envelopesender
sendemail.smtpencryption
sendemail.smtpserver
sendemail.smptuser
sendemail.smtppass
sendemail.to

"git send-email a.patch" fails with "5.7.1 <r...@$mydomain>: Recipient
address rejected: Access denied" while "git --smtp-user $myuser --smtp-
pass $mypass send-email a.patch" works like a treat.

$ dpkg -l git-email Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
