Configure git send mail for yahoo email
Hi All, Could some one guide me how to configure .gitconfig I have tried following commands. git config --global sendemail.smtpserver smtp.mail.yahoo.com git config --global sendemail.smtpserverport 4100 git config --global sendemail.smtpencryption ssl git config --global sendemail.smtpuser moon.linux@yahoo.com git config --global sendemail.confirm auto But I get following error: Unable to initialize SMTP properly. Check config and use --smtp-debug. -Anand Moon
Hi Valdis, Finally I got it working using following configuration git config --global sendemail.smtpserver plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com git config --global sendemail.smtpserverport 465 git config --global sendemail.smtpencryption ssl -Anand Moon On Tuesday, August 5, 2014 12:42 AM, "Valdis.Kletnieks@vt.edu" <Valdis.Kletnieks@vt.edu> wrote: On Mon, 04 Aug 2014 11:34:17 -0700, Anand Moon said:

So? Did you use --smtp-debug? Did the resulting output help any? _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@kernelnewbies.org http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies

I thought the port 4100 in the original mail looked fishy. Whatever gave you the idea to try that? I'd like to list the source in my collection of wildly unreliable info sources. :)
Hi Valdis, I had the same doubt with the port number. I got the above setting from below link which turn around to be wrong. http://www.beautifulwork.org/2012/05/15/send-patches-using-git-from-yahoo/ -Anand Moon On Tuesday, August 5, 2014 1:41 AM, "Valdis.Kletnieks@vt.edu" <Valdis.Kletnieks@vt.edu> wrote: On Mon, 04 Aug 2014 12:40:35 -0700, Anand Moon said:
