I copied it from the email prog into my text editor then saved it. Then used the 'patch -p0 < foo.patch' command. Excuse my patching inexperience here. ;) Also recommended to me was just to "save as" the entire message.
Yeah, the copy & paste must have done it. Well, ask Alexandre, I suspect he knows a thing or two about it :) BTW, I'm surprised that the mailers (KMail, Evolution) don't have a built it action like pressing 'P' while viewing a email to apply the patch (I haven't checked closely, but I've never seen something like this).
I'll get your patches in sometime today, I'm a little buried right now, our office building lost power for a couple hours so I'm in the process of getting our network back up and stable. The co-lo server where WineHQ is hosted was unaffected thankfully.
I hope you guys have good a UPS. My server has an uptime >300 days, and I had many power failures (some quite long). It saves the day.
