FWIW, for projects that use git, it's often easiest to ignore your
standard MUA and use "git format-patch --cover-letter ...", edit the
cover in your favorite editor, and then "git send-email".

That sequence doesn't work quite as well with gcc.  I waffle between
send-email and attachments for gcc.  But we also don't have a problem
with out-line patches over in gcc-patches.
