Please do not do that.  Would you like to receive patches out of order,
not threaded, and all mixed up in the middle of hundreds of other
patches?  How would you be able to figure it out?  Please consider that
someone has to read what you send out :)

You can use mutt for that, but you need to know what you are doing and
how to thread emails with it.  It's not simple, so please just use git
send-email for now until you learn mutt better.

good luck!
