You run ./t9001-send-email.sh (without `prove`). Add -v to see some
verbiage from the tests, throw in -i to have it stop at the first
failure (so you don't have to scroll back to find it), and add -x for
additional traces of commands that the shell executes (to see the exact
command that failed).

IFAIC, I always go all in, i.e., either all or none of -v -i -x.
