that makes sense.  i want to get my email setup like that.

the inline patch was included for easier viewing in the browser and not
as a replacement for the attachment, or endorsing skipping the
attachment.  so i'm glad you clarified

on the last bug report, when i got help from people, i found myself
linking to both the bug report page, and separately to another page
where they could view the code in-browser.  maybe the bug report page
https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=65973
could display the attached patch in addition to having a download link.
the source code for this page has not been touched in years though, so
that makes me think it will be difficult to contribute a change.

thanks for the assistance with this and the prior bug!
