I prefer NOT to see attachments on a mailing list. The bulk of
subscribers won't need to look at it, so it's a waste of bandwidth.
Better to send it direct to those requesting it, or post it on a web or
FTP site for download by those who want it.

If it's a small text-only patch comparable to the size of mail headers,
then just post it inline.
