Hello,
Thanks for the help, and sorry to reply here (as some of you noted the
forwarding from address with SPF was broken and messages bounced). It seems
like this is a msmtp issue, more exactly msmtp doesn't handle SIGPIPE, and
AFAICT this leads to crashes when the server closes the connection before msmtp
does:

This has nothing to do with git, I probably didn't realize before because I
guess mutt ignores this completely. I already sent a patch upstream.
Roger.
