This is a simple test of email configuration, and how the line ending
survive the different MTAs. (There should only be CRLFs in the hunk, and
LFs everywhere else.)

+# How to properly send a patch to the mailing-lists
+
+tl;dr: That's not possible.
+
+EDK2 got a mix of CRLFs and LFs line ending. Some MTA will probably modify the
+them before reaching the recipient. This patch tests base64 transfer-encoding
+instead of quoted-printable. But the email is probably going to be modified
+anyway...
