I believe by default authorship is given to the email sender, but it can be overridden by including "From: ..." in the email contents. So you're correct that the "From: ..." in Mahavir's email is redundant, but it also isn't doing any harm so he shouldn't need to resend the patch. Also, the signed-off-by is not the same as authorship, so he does either need to send the patch himself, or include the "From: Mahavir..." in the patch contents. Best, Peter
