Yes, don't use your email client for actually sending the patches.
Use git-send-email for 'stg mail' to send your patches from the
command line.  Your Exchange server should have SMTP turned on and you
can send directly to it.  Otherwise, you can try connecting to an
external open SMTP relay.

You'll still receive the replies and comments in Outlook.

Use gmail.  It's free, and as long as you make sure your message is
plaintext it won't mess with patches.

Suitability of patchs as attachments

2008-05-16 Thread Welch, Martyn (GE EntSol, Intelligent Platforms)
Hi all,

I wish I didn't have to ask this but...

For now I'm stuck using Outlook and Exchange for email, despite my best
efforts I have been unable to force it to send patchs inline without
breaking them (I can get it to do plain text, however it seems to have
the habbit of wrapping ling lines, such as the "diff --git..." lines).

Is anyone in the same position and has worked out how to do this?

I also have a patch for initial support of one of our boards waiting
here, would it be acceptable to attach this as a patch on this mailing
list?

Thanks,

Martyn
