I understood it may be difficult to extract all patch files in a single email.  Sorry, I can't tell whether it's
possible...

Another idea is to add the number of lines of the mail thread.  Reviewers can expect that a patch with short discussion
maybe easy to work on, although it's not always true of course.  Long mail threads are hard to understand for those who
arenew and/or not good at English.
