In an earlier mail, I was told that it doesn't matter for patchwork if a patch 
is sent as an attachment.

We are pinned on Outlook here and webmailers are filtered out by the proxy, so 
I need to send patches via Outlook.
Easiest way in Outlook is an attachment.

Patches should not be set as attachment but inline.
If you do not have snmp access to your email account you have two options:
1. use a different account (e.g. gmail). you can make one especially
for this. Note that the account may differ from the one in signed-off
(although that is inconvenient)
2. just include the patch in the body of your email. Make sure you use
an email client that does not touch the message (turn spaces in tabs,
wrap lines etc etc).
In the past I did this. A good mail client to do so is pine (or alpine)
