Oh, I am starting to see what's happening here. This is new and
apparently due to some changes with the mail server setup on our end.

I have this in my patch file:

$ head 0001-memory-brcmstb_dpfe-fix-array-index-out-of-bounds.patch
From 6b424772d4c84fa56474b2522d0d3ed6b2b2b360 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Markus Mayer <mmayer@broadcom.com>

Sending patches like this used to work. Clearly our SMTP server has
now taken it upon itself to rewrite the sender e-mail address. I
wasn't expecting that. Let me look into it. Sorry for the hassle. It
was not intentional.

Regards,
-Markus
