 Replying to [comment:14 kaner]:

 This is to be expected when sending mails as "gettor at torproject.org" as a
 sender address. What was your exact plan concerning that? If we set
 "something at gmail.com" as a sender, people will reply to that address, too,
 and nothing ends up with GetTor.

 No. You can set arbitrary From addresses with Gmail, even in the web
 interface - after you have confirmed them once. This is *not* the issue
 here, as I have described in my previous comment: I can send mails fine
 using gettor at tpo addresses as From address from command line (including
 attachments), from within the Gmail web interface (including attachments),
 and Gettor was also able to send mails via Gmail. Just not the ones with
 the attachment.

 Either gsathya and/or sukhbir and/or nima wanted to do the Google Drive
 thing. You or me can do it as well, but I don't want to steal their chosen
 assignments.
