The important thing is that you use a sane MIME type and
encoding. All MIMEd patches should use a text/* MIME type and NO
ENCODING. Quoted-unreadable is an abomination.

If i can't show -noshowproc | patch -s, i won't be happy.

White space breakage? If the editor you compose your messages
with can't insert an external file, it needs replacing.
