        Hi,
it's correct, it's called folding, and it's done in headers on purpose.

This is also correct. The message content is saved in a
quoted-printable encoding, at least that attached, which allows such
thing.

The mbox format is just a set of messages, conforming to RFC 822, with
a certain-formatted separator between the messages.

What you really want to do is to either save the message content (the
patch) as a text file and only then do any processing on it, or use the
tool of your version control system, which might be git-am in case of
the git, which is supposed to deal with such things in the messages.
