+If you're asking about notmuch-emacs, I just use "|" (or ". |" if a\r
+MIME subpart is the patch instead of the whole message) to pipe the\r
+patch into some command i care about.\r
+\r
+For example, if it's a git-format-generated e-mail, i'll hit the pipe\r
+character ("|") and then in the minibuffer i'll do:\r
+\r
+  cd ~/src/notmuch/notmuch && git am\r
+\r
+does that make sense?  If that doesn't work for you, can you be more\r
+specific about what you're trying to do?\r
