It looks like your client in corrupting the patch. The first link should 
explain how to configure some clients. Maybe you can follow the steps to 
configure your client.

Usually the easiest way is to use git-send-email. But this would be a 
different email client.

And let me guess, you have to use your phoenixcontact.com mail account to 
contribute to projects... If nothing else works then maybe you can send it 
just as attachments. It is a little bit ugly to comment on attachments but 
better than no patches at all. (I hope it is ok for the maintainers)

No problem. I've send more nonsense to the list than anyone else :)

No, the patches are not applied anywhere automatically. Marek will go through 
the patches and apply them manually after they were discussed on the 
mailinglist.

Some projects use a tool called patchwork that gathers patches but even then 
it wouldn't be applied in a git repo automatically.

Kind regards,
