The patch is malformed.  It claims to contain 7 lines (6 lines context,
one line changed), but actually it has only 4 lines context.  Please

I did use `git format-patch` to make that message (then sent using TB).
I guess I'll have to try something else next time.

Been there, done that, even the "I'll have to try something else". It's astounding how SeaMonkey, Pine, and probably gmane bork up the formatting of something that looks so benignly laid out to begin with.

After much experience putting up with these and other MUAs from us, Corinna really does know *the* solution that just works. 'git format-patch' followed by 'git send-email'.

With cheers and understanding,
