Hi,

I'm trying to send a patch with the command `git imap-send`, I used the examples in the manual page as the main reference for my configuration:

```
[imap]
	folder = "[Gmail]/Drafts"
	host = imaps://imap.gmail.com
	user = doron.behar@gmail.com
	port = 993
	sslverify = false
```
This is my `cat patch.out | git imap-send` output:

``` Password for 'imaps://doron.behar@gmail.com@imap.gmail.com': sending 3 messages curl_easy_perform() failed: URL using bad/illegal format or missing URL ```

The URI doesn't seem OK to me, I tried using `imap.user = doron.behar` and the URI was `imaps://doron.behar@imap.gmail.com` but that ended up with the same error as in the previous case.

I would love to get some help here, a Google Search didn't help as well.
Thanks.
