What mailer to use with Gmail?

What mailer to use with Gmail?

[Leam Hall]

Setting aside the desire to cuss as gmail, I'm having difficult making Thunderbird not send base64 attachments. Now an upgrade as cost me the ability to revert.  :(

Suggestions for a mailer to use for patches, and other things that don't like base64?

Thanks!

Leam

The best way to send out patches is using git-send-email directly. It's 
pretty straightforward to configure git to use Gmail smtp for this 
purpose.

You can continue using Thunderbird when replying to conversations, or 
you can take a dive from the deep end and investigate Mutt/NeoMutt. :)
