I've had similar problems. I think it's actually a filtering issue on the
receiving end though, as some seem to see the mails on the list (while
most don't). Looking at the headers, I see the hostname of my laptop as
originating host when using git-send-email, which obviously will fail
for any receiving host that tries to connect back to verify that the
originating sender is indeed a real SMTP server.
