I am trying to use git-imap-send to send a Draft to my GMail account  
which uses SSL to connect, I have put the correct port (993 in that  
case) in the config file but it seems it doesn't work. I figure that  
git-imap-send is not able to connect using SSL.

 well, there a patch by for SSL support for git-imap-send by Rob
Shearman "robertshearman@gmail.com" over two weeks ago but it did not
apply cleanly on master at the time, well, maybe I can send
my version of this patch? or do I need to ask Rob Shearman?

Since the patch was made against the current git sources, which are GPL,
the patch itself and the produced sources are also GPL. As such, you're
free to continue the work he sent you and submit it back to git, but you
may not alter the license for your submitted code.

That is: "Yes, you may work on Rob Shearmans patch, but the result must
be GPL'd".
