-Troubleshooting issues with git-multimail: a FAQ
-================================================
-
-How to check that git-multimail is properly set up?
----------------------------------------------------
-
-Since version 1.4.0, git-multimail allows a simple self-checking of
-its configuration: run it with the environment variable
-``GIT_MULTIMAIL_CHECK_SETUP`` set to a non-empty string. You should
-get something like this::
-
-  $ GIT_MULTIMAIL_CHECK_SETUP=true /home/moy/dev/git-multimail/git-multimail/git_multimail.py
-  Environment values:
-      administrator : 'the administrator of this repository'
-      charset : 'utf-8'
-      emailprefix : '[git-multimail] '
-      fqdn : 'anie'
-      projectdesc : 'UNNAMED PROJECT'
-      pusher : 'moy'
-      repo_path : '/home/moy/dev/git-multimail'
-      repo_shortname : 'git-multimail'
-
-  Now, checking that git-multimail's standard input is properly set ...
-  Please type some text and then press Return
-  foo
-  You have just entered:
-  foo
-  git-multimail seems properly set up.
-
-If you forgot to set an important variable, you may get instead::
-
-  $ GIT_MULTIMAIL_CHECK_SETUP=true /home/moy/dev/git-multimail/git-multimail/git_multimail.py
-  No email recipients configured!
-
-Do not set ``$GIT_MULTIMAIL_CHECK_SETUP`` other than for testing your
-configuration: it would disable the hook completely.
-
-Git is not using the right address in the From/To/Reply-To field
-----------------------------------------------------------------
-
-First, make sure that git-multimail actually uses what you think it is
-using. A lot happens to your email (especially when posting to a
-mailing-list) between the time `git_multimail.py` sends it and the
-time it reaches your inbox.
-
-A simple test (to do on a test repository, do not use in production as
-it would disable email sending): change your post-receive hook to call
-`git_multimail.py` with the `--stdout` option, and try to push to the
-repository. You should see something like::
-
-  Counting objects: 3, done.
-  Writing objects: 100% (3/3), 263 bytes | 0 bytes/s, done.
-  Total 3 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0)

-Note: this does not include the sender (Return-Path: header), as it is
-not part of the message content but passed to the mailer. Some mailer
-show the ``Sender:`` field instead of the ``From:`` field (for
-example, Zimbra Webmail shows ``From: <sender-field> on behalf of
-<from-field>``).
