Just got a similar message here, without the fatal part, just:
[Net::SMTP::SSL] Connection closed at /usr/lib/git-core/git-send-email
line 1320.
It seems that only one patch is causing the problem (in my case the
first after the cover letter). I use TLS too and send it over a postfix
SMTP server I maintain myself. The postfix log shows this:
postfix/smtpd[8535]: lost connection after DATA (16357 bytes) from
unknown[x.y.z.z]
postfix/smtpd[8535]: disconnect from unknown[x.y.z.z]
So it seems that the client side disconnects?
I rerun the command with --smtp-debug=1
...
Net::SMTP::SSL=GLOB(0x1fb3558)>>> +MODULE_LICENSE("GPL");
Net::SMTP::SSL=GLOB(0x1fb3558)>>> --
Net::SMTP::SSL=GLOB(0x1fb3558)>>> 2.4.5

line 1320.
It seems to me that there is a size limit, after cutting down the patch
to ~16K, sending started to work. I cut it twice, once by removing lines
from the head and once from the bottom, in both cases at the size of
around 16K I could send the patch.

Same versions here, unfortunately I can't downgrade because I recently
cleared my package cache :-(
