Someone kept saying that tbird would work and I kept asking how.
What I finally got was:

a. enable html-formatted email (unintuirive, I had disabled it)
b. for the body text, select Fixed Width
c. copy-and-paste the patch

I tested it one time and it worked.
But as long as Andrew accepts text/plain attachments, that
works for him. Makes it difficult to review them in some
mail clients...
