It would seem patch submittal problem was a 1 time event (I hope).

I believe I'm doing the Outlook 2000 equivalents and the feedback I've
received so far says the problem is a 1 time event.

Since email list filter's out ZIP files, I post new files on my WWW site
until patch acceptance is decided.  In can put patch text file there too.

I'm not ruling out moving to another email client for CVS work.  It's a
one time chore but I'll do it if needed.  :(
