Re: [msysGit] Difficulties senting patches to Git list using msmpt (send-email)

Seems like a greylist problem ?
(I take the freedom to forward your mail to upstream git,
in the hope that somebody has has an idea)

I'm scratching my head as to why patches I try to send upstream (git@vger.kernel.org) via my MSysGit install's send-email appear to be being dropped at gver/gmane.

It's only the patches I originate via send-email, using the windows MSysGit msmtp mailer that aren't getting through. Other emails I send in reply to threads on gmane (via OE6) get through OK.

I have confirmed I'm subscribed (as per FAQs), and I've also tested the auto-answer facility.

The one peculiarity of the auto-answers is that the OE6 email reply had a delay:

X-Greylist: delayed 592 seconds by postgrey-1.27 at vger.kernel.org; Sat, 01 Aug 2015 16:11:58 EDT
[...]
X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2900.5931

while msmpt did not:
[ no X-Greylist: ]
X-Mailer: git-send-email 2.3.1

The delay may be a red-herring as it occurred on the non-problematic route, but may be an indication of some extra processing within gmane that affects the patches.

I have had a reply to one of the patch emails's direct addressees ($gmane/275141), and I'd also received a copy of the patch as I'd cc'd myself, so at least the outbound routing is getting beyond my ISP.

Does anyone have suggestions as to how I determine where/why my patche emails dropped into >dev/null ?

PS I'm using the old msysgit infrastructure as msmpt wasn't available in the new SDK at this moment.

I don't believe it's anything to do with the recompile at v2.3.1 (rather than the plain vanilla msysgit.1.9.5), but then again...
