I'd recommend alpine/re-alpine - works well with all mails I receive via 
LKML and elsewhere and I never get complaints about mangled emails from 
people I send patches to (ohh and I happen to like the user interface ;-) 
- check it out.

Don't know your workflow, but I can tell you what I do. I just have a 
branch for patches that I'm gathering that are not yet in upstream. Apply 
any new stuff there (or cherry-pick from other branches to my queue 
branch) and then regularly rebase that branch on master (Linus' tree).
When I then want to resend some patches it's as simple as checking out my 
queue branch, doing a rebase to make sure there's no obsolete stuff in it 
and then  git format-patch  to generate mails for the patches I want to 
re-send and then read those patches in to re-alpine and send them.
To me that's not very painfull, but of course it may not match your 
workflow - just a description of mine :-) .
