Yes, I pointed Ben to patch files which lacked original rfc822 headers. Sorry for causing trouble. A related question: If a patch written by author A is forwarded via e-mail by person B to git tree maintainer C, and C imports the mail with git-am or git-applymbox --- will git catch the _last_ "From: " line (hopefully listing the address of A) or the first "From: " line (which contains the forwarding address of B) as author of the patch? Similarly, will it care for the last or first "Subject: " line? (The first line being the actual mail header, the last being a line in the mail body or a line in a plain-text encoded attachment, that is.)
