[PATCH aerc] config: add option for SMTP HELO/EHLO local domain
Export this patch
Expose go-smtp functionality for setting the domain name as a config
option. This allows aerc to communicate with SMTP servers with strict
antispam measures without relying on sendmail.
In theory, this should be set to a fully qualified domain name, but some
servers simply forbid the use of "localhost", so it is reasonable to let
the user set whatever value works for them.
For comparison, this is equivalent to the functionality of the "domain"
option of msmtp.
