I can "Save As" just fine, the point is I don't want or need all the

simpler.

The "patch" command automatically deals with (ignores) non-patch
content. The cruft can provide useful human-readable context related to
the patch. After you've saved the message file (no tabs mangled, ...)
you can, if you prefer, delete the text above and below the patch.

I usually post small patches in the message body, and attach larger
patches that require compression.

I'm aware of what I can do. It was simply a request at a nice clean way of presenting patches that are minus all the cruft of the email message text, headers, etc. It is a very common way of presenting patches to a community. Postfix can of course continue on its merry way doing what it has always done.
