ftpd- proftpd (i absolutely love this ftp server, as its built with security in mind, has chroot environments, and its configuration is modeled after apache's. there are so many directives....excellent choice for a decent server.
mta- sendmail is ok, but i prefer exim.
pop3/imap: i prefer to use imap, as it leaves the files on the server. pop3 though is ok if you have a lot of users/email/.
for imap, i use courier.
this is really just a preference sort of thing.....different strokes for different folks and all that.

git-imap-send
GIT-IMAP-SEND(1) Git Manual GIT-IMAP-SEND(1)
NAME
git-imap-send - Send a collection of patches from stdin to an IMAP folder
SYNOPSIS
git imap-send
DESCRIPTION
This command uploads a mailbox generated with git format-patch into an IMAP drafts folder. This allows patches to be sent as other email is
when using mail clients that cannot read mailbox files directly. The command also works with any general mailbox in which emails have the
fields "From", "Date", and "Subject" in that order.
Typical usage is something like:
git format-patch --signoff --stdout --attach origin | git imap-send
CONFIGURATION
To use the tool, imap.folder and either imap.tunnel or imap.host must be set to appropriate values.
Variables
imap.folder
The folder to drop the mails into, which is typically the Drafts folder. For example: "INBOX.Drafts", "INBOX/Drafts" or
"[Gmail]/Drafts". Required to use imap-send.
imap.tunnel
Command used to setup a tunnel to the IMAP server through which commands will be piped instead of using a direct network connection to
the server. Required when imap.host is not set to use imap-send.
imap.host
A URL identifying the server. Use a imap:// prefix for non-secure connections and a imaps:// prefix for secure connections. Ignored
when imap.tunnel is set, but required to use imap-send otherwise.
imap.user
The username to use when logging in to the server.
imap.pass
The password to use when logging in to the server.
imap.port
An integer port number to connect to on the server. Defaults to 143 for imap:// hosts and 993 for imaps:// hosts. Ignored when
imap.tunnel is set.
imap.sslverify
A boolean to enable/disable verification of the server certificate used by the SSL/TLS connection. Default is true. Ignored when
imap.tunnel is set.
imap.preformattedHTML
A boolean to enable/disable the use of html encoding when sending a patch. An html encoded patch will be bracketed with <pre> and have
a content type of text/html. Ironically, enabling this option causes Thunderbird to send the patch as a plain/text, format=fixed email.
Default is false.
imap.authMethod
Specify authenticate method for authentication with IMAP server. Current supported method is CRAM-MD5 only.
Examples
Using tunnel mode:
[imap]
folder = "INBOX.Drafts"
tunnel = "ssh -q -C user@example.com /usr/bin/imapd ./Maildir 2> /dev/null"
Using direct mode:
[imap]
folder = "INBOX.Drafts"
host = imap://imap.example.com
user = bob
pass = p4ssw0rd
Using direct mode with SSL:
[imap]
folder = "INBOX.Drafts"
host = imaps://imap.example.com
user = bob
pass = p4ssw0rd
port = 123
sslverify = false
CAUTION
It is still your responsibility to make sure that the email message sent by your email program meets the standards of your project. Many
projects do not like patches to be attached. Some mail agents will transform patches (e.g. wrap lines, send them as format=flowed) in ways
that make them fail. You will get angry flames ridiculing you if you don't check this.
Thunderbird in particular is known to be problematic. Thunderbird users may wish to visit this web page for more information:
