Hmm. Your email seems whitespace-corrupted.

It's a strange form of corruption, where a line that should start with a 
single space and a tab (normal for a patch) seems to have _two_ spaces and 
a tab. Empty lines with just a space have also had their space removed.

You seem to be a pine user (good man - but you may want to update to 
'alpine' these days and enjoy the much improved multi-charset support), 
but you also have "format=flowed", and I suspect that's related to the 
problem.

So please check the config option that says "quell flowed text", and make 
sure that "no strip whitespace before send" is also set.

I'll drop the patches, please re-send.
