I didn't use quilt or git-send-mail before. When I sent the array_size series I prepaired all the mails and put them in a =not-sent-mail mbox. After normally sending the first mail [00], I opened the =sent_mail mbox and hit reply (to let mutt put the `In-Reply-To header' automatically) then it's just the matter of chosing one of the not sent yet mails to be sent. This way is ofcourse weak for very large patch serieses, but it just do the job for small sized sets ;). Regards, -- Ahmed S.
