Well, it would be nice to add this information to the wiki, it's still mentioning that you require an external program for supporting the TLS connection. I'll do that when I'll get my box working with the configuration you suggested, What I'm getting at the moment is: paolo@paolo-desktop:~/git$ git-send-email -compose -to paolo.ciarrocchi@xxxxxxxxx /home/paolo/Desktop/patch/ snip snip Can't locate Net/SMTP/SSL.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /home/paolo/share/perl/5.8.8 /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.8.8 /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.8 /usr/share/perl/5.8 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at /home/paolo/bin/git-send-email line 627.
