Maybe you should check how to "properly" format patches for the list.
For example. see:

http://notmuchmail.org/pipermail/notmuch/2011/005412.html

Note that after three '---' and before the 'diff git ..' the contents
are ignored by git am (or something), for an example, see:

http://notmuchmail.org/pipermail/notmuch/2011/005452.html
