I apologise for that... as you can see from below, our company's
"anti-spam" / "anti-virus" mail servers tend to mangle incoming
e-mails in ways that make it challenging to work with MLs:

Now I know why both you and Marc-Andre had problems applying my
patches: apparently our servers also mangle with outgoing e-mails too.

I heard that pulling the patches from mbox work, but I'll make sure to
post patches on Github in the future to make things easier for others.
I've already asked them to look into this and whitelist e-mails on
various criteria.

Thanks for your help in making sure these patches work for you despite
the extra hurdles!
