Subject: How can I specify the "sendmail" program for git-send-email?

Hi, experts
I read the git-send-email manual and find the --smtp-server option can
specify the sendmail-like program to send mail.
Then I use this option in command line
--smtp-server=/usr/bin/msmtp
This works.
While I found it not very convenient to write the option on command line
every time, then I wrote it in the .gitconfig file in my home directory.
[sendmail]
smtpserver = /usr/bin/msmtp
smtppass = 123456
smtpuser = weiyang@linux.vnet.ibm.com
smtpserverport = 143
While this time I don't use the --smtp-server option in command line.
And seems this time, it doesn't use the msmpt to send mail, since this
time it fails.
Then my second approach is not correct?
