As you can see in the To: line of this reply, your MUA is placing only the e-mail address without name on your From: line. Preferrably I'd like to see the same string as your sign-off on the "From:" line in your messages for a bit of human touch ;-) Can you tweak your MUA to make that happen? The second preference is to add an in-body header (i.e. as the first line of the body of the message) so that the body of the message starts like this: From: Josh Steadmon <steadmon@xxxxxxxxxx> When a smart HTTP server sends an error message via pkt-line, remote-curl will fail to detect the error (which usually results in incorrectly falling back to dumb-HTTP mode). This patch adds a check in discover_refs() for server-side error messages, as well as a test case for this issue.

Thanks.
