Hi Dimi,
I'm deeply sorry about that and I understand your frustrations for I have frustrations of my own using my mail client.
The problem is that I have no other choice but to use Notes as a mail client for external emails at my company and Notes really screws up attachments and there's no way to configure it. Also, it wraps line longer than 70 characters, so inlining some of my patches will result in bogus patches. Then again, there's no way to configure it to disable line wrapping. And trust me, I've tried....
So what I'm gonna do in the future is inline patches that won't get line wrapped and attach the others the way I use too. Hopefully, most of them will be inlined.
I apologize for the inconveniences.
Dave
Can't you just call your diffs "something.txt" and attach them?

P.S. Inlining them is _far_ supperior to attachment. First, we can review them without any additional action. Second, we can simply press "Reply" and quote the code we want to comment on. This is very important.
Can't you do all of that with text/plain attachments? Don't you then get the added bonus that they do not line wrap, ever?
Maybe we should put the "use .txt extension" into the FAQ.
