I had trouble about this before also but figured it out. On the web
interface, click 'About' that is beside 'Members' and there you will
find the group email to send the patches to.

Most likely you will need to update your .gitconfig to point to the
configured esmtp the same way you did for mutt. Add this to your
.gitconfig:
[sendemail]
smtpserver = /usr/bin/esmtp
