Hydroxide is a very popular third party client for ProtonMail free accounts. Recently the project was resurrected and now it works properly. Add it as an option for using with send-email.

Re: [PATCH] docs: add hydroxide as an option for ProtonMail users

I just realised the From in this email is showing "Your Name" instead of my name. It was due to a mistake in my .gitconfig. Do I have to resend this?

With in-body header "From:" overriding that bogosity with the real author, it shouldn't be necessary, but I do not recall seeing the patch nor (more importantly) a discussion on it.
