hmm.. then I don't know the answer to that.. always send through git 
send-email(patches)and things are good(knock-on-wood)always ran into 
issues with copy/pasting onto thunderbird. Hopefully somebody else with 
more knowledge of using git send-email patches through microsoft 
exchange answers this..

side note: maybe postfix or some type of wrapper around the wording 
message(utf-8) to keep microsoft from mangling things or 
something.(tough to say though)
