It breaks for `git am' though, such as for picking up patches directly
from the mailing list via the MUA (hmm, why hasn't this particular patch
arrive here?). There are other issues with the rewrite, such as the
inability to sort messages by authors in the mailbox, but the former is
possibly the most painful.

Yep, GNU toolchain lists I'm on that are used for patch distribution
(such as <binutils at sourceware,org>, <gcc-patches at gcc.gnu.org>, but not
<gcc-help at gcc.gnu.org>) simply disabled such rewriting, after numerous
discussions (not sure what OSU OSL is though).
Up to you to decide, I just wanted to share my concern.
