No. An email client can sync with the drafts folder in GMail over
IMAP. However, sending the final email has to be done over SMTP.
The effect of "git imap-send" can be replicated by copy-pasting text
into the email client's compose interface. So, using "git imap-send"
seems like a bit of a roundabout way to me. There are some usecases
though (like queuing up patches as drafts before sending): so I'll add
a paragraph about this in my next revision.
