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)
