[PATCH 1/2] Documentation: git-send-email: fix submission port number

From: Wesley J. Landaker <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:47:07
Subsystem: documentation, the rest · Maintainers: Jonathan Corbet, Linus Torvalds

The current documentation confuses non-standard SSL smtp port 465 with
submission port 587 (RFC 4406). This patch just changes the referenced
number.
