Running git format-patch results in most patches having wrong SMTP sender information due to the assumption that the patch author is the same person also submitting the patch. So in practise, this would either require changing the From: (and thus Author) to myself or having most mails eaten by anti-spam measures due to non-matching SPF which prohibits my SMTP to send mail on behalf of the original authors of the patches. How do you suggest to handle this situation? Cheers Daniel
