Actually, I found out earlier today that when a patch is sent as an
attachment, and I reply to that message message using Thunderbird, the
attachment isn't included in the reply (and so obviously isn't sitting
there quoted), making it more difficult to comment.
Either that's a Thunderbird bug, or the attachment isn't text/plain.
Sometimes mailers use silly things like text/x-patch and that confuses
things. Sending them inline is safest if using a decent editor which
can insert files without line wrapping, or using git-send-email
