There's two bits there - one is that it's adding to the mail volume when people chase up, the other is that if things have been lost then almost always the answer is that I don't have the patch any more (or it'll be error prone to find) and it'll need a resend so it's better to chase up by resending the patch since that can be acted on directly.
