For those of you unfortunate enough to be stuck behind firewalls or rely on crap webmail interfaces, you can pass the:
--smtp-server-port=587 --smtp-server=bogomips.org options to "git send-email" when sending patches/plain-text mail to [email protected] You'll still need a valid From: address to receive replies and participate in the discussion if you're not subscribed to the mailing list. Note: "git send-email" can send regular plain-text emails with valid Subject: and From: headers. If you're not familiar with email message headers, they're nearly identical to HTTP, and you can use "git format-patch"-generated patches as a guide. Caveats: - This will expose your client IP address to the world (but many existing mail setups do that anyways) - This will not work for Cc-ing others in replies directly, but works for all @bogomips.org email addresses, so you may want to add "--suppress-cc=all" or similar.
