I have been very pleased with git send-email.

I always send out the initial mail by hand "[PATCH 0/nn] xxx".
When it has arrived I create a small shell script
so I can handcraft the options.
Typical shell script looks like this:

git send-email --quiet --no-chain-reply-to \
--in-reply-to "<20090429073510.GA26386@...nus.ravnborg.org>" \
--to "Ingo Molnar <mingo@...e.hu>" \
--to "LKML <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org>" \
00*

This works well when I have longer series of mail.
And you can split it up so you do it in smaller
groups of say 10 mails.

For a single patch or two I always do it manually.
