Hello,

I'd like to report a bug. There's an incompatibility between the way
TortoiseGit sends patches by e-mail and their handling by
git-mailsplit. The mail sent by TortoiseGit specifies the Content-Type
header as "Content-Type: text/plain;
boundary=WC_MAIL_PaRt_BoUnDaRy_05151998". git-mailsplit then
misinterprets it and treats it as empty patch. While TortoiseGit
should not be sending the boundary parameter, it is perfectly valid
e-mail according to RFC 5322 and MIME RFCs. The "boundary" parameter
should be ignored for anything but "multipart" Content-Types.

Best regards,
Filip Navara
