Mail server set-up using sendmail per instructions found in https://docs.gitea.io/en-us/email-setup
The relevant section from app.ini:

[mailer]
ENABLED          = true
FROM             = gitea@valid.domain
PROTOCOL         = sendmail
#MAILERTYPE       = sendmail                                                                                                                                                                                
# HOST             = localhost:25                                                                                                                                                                           
# SKIP_VERFIY      = true                                                                                                                                                                                   
# USER             =                                                                                                                                                                                        
# PASSWD           =                                                                                                                                                                                        
SENDMAIL_PATH    = /sbin/sendmail
SENDMAIL_TIMEOUT = 1m
SENDMAIL_ARGS    = --

When trying send a test mail via the configuration page, I get the following error:

Failed to send a testing email to 'target@adress.com': gomail: could not send email 1: missing port in address

To me that looks like the PROTOCOL = sendmail entry is ignored as removing the comments from the HOST entry solves this (but in turn creates other issues wrt localhost, certificates, TLS encryption, etc).
