Use git send-email. Use a config like this (place in ~/.gitconfig): [sendemail] smtpuser = username@xxxxxxxxxxxxx smtpencryption = tls smtpServer = smtp.office365.com smtpServerPort = 587 smtpdomain = mycompany.com It is also possible to use Evolution email client with EWS connection with an office based email system, but it is still trouble to avoid line wrapping in the Evolution email editor. Git send-email is so much less trouble. You can send plain text emails with outlook or office web email, but I can not figure out how to turn off line-wrapping or to top-quote. Evolution allows these and integrates quite nicely.
