Did you by any chance gzip it? IIRC, mails with gzipped attachments are
silently dropped on- patches for some reason. (Can't remember if it was
all gzip or just tar.gz, but it was dropped. You can find a discussion
about it in the archives around when i posted the msvc build patch
stuff, sometime this summer a couple of days after the conference)

Hm?  They've always worked fine for me, and for a lot of other people.
You should ask Marc to look into this.

It depends on the MIME type IIRC.

You even confirmed that you had the same problem.
