imap-send doc: omit confusing "to use imap-send" modifier
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
It wouldn't make sense for these configuration variables to be
required for Git in general to function.  'Required' in this context
means required for git imap-send to work.

Noticed while trying to figure out what the sentence describing
imap.tunnel meant.

[jn: expanded to also simplify explanation of imap.folder and
 imap.host in the same way]
