The problem is also that it's impossible to please both parties here. A good portion of people doesn't like being flooded with patches they don't really care about and the other portion gets worked up when they only see a single patch. So honestly I just always make a judgement call based on the series. But b4 makes it so so easy to just retrieve the whole series. So even if I only receive a single patch and am curious then I just use b4. I've even got it integrated into mutt directly: # Pipe message to b4 to download patches and threads macro index,pager A "b4 am --apply-cover-trailers --sloppy-trailers --add-my-sob --guess-base --check-newer-revisions --no-cache --quilt-ready " macro index,pager M "b4 mbox "
