I can only advise against sending patches in the bodies, sorry. Bodies
are for human-language text. Attachments are for files like diffs, and
are preserved. Attachments with "Content-Disposition: inline" are for
attachments which are supposed to be read directly in the email reader,
like is the case here.
I guess that other, console-based email software won't deal with inline
attachments as nicely, but the major email clients do. Instead of trying
to do something that's going to be fruitless - email bodies are never
going to be character-to-character identical, because there are many
demands on formatting (up to graphical smiles) and from many different
languages (charsets, like seems to be the problem here) on it by users
-, I think your better route for success would be to use inline
attachments and fix the software which can't deal with *that* properly,
including display and quoting.
Sorry to brush you off, but I this is a battle we can't win, either way.
Too many demands from too many sides.
