Well, the topic isn't new but here is some wisdom from others on how to post patches with the various wannabe mail clients like Mozilla.

Others have suggested using an external editor which will show up in the compose editor and allow to include the patch file inline. Here's Martin Bligh's page on the topic: http://mbligh.org/linuxdocs/Email/Clients/Thunderbird Credits for anybody would writes some useful docs for the linux-mips wiki on this topic - unfortunately it's really high in demand. I'd do it myself - but I am a mutt + vi user :-) Ralf
