$ ./git-format-patch --stdout master~5..master~1 >>~/mail/postponed-msgs
$ alpine -I cp

Only problem with doing that is that alpine changes the Date: and
 Message-Id: header (the later being a pain if I used --threaded).

I don't know about other MUA (or how Daniel or Miklos work) but someone
could use a command like:

$ git-format-patch --stdout master~5..master~1 | sendmail -bm -t

But in all honesty I don't think it matters whether the headers are set by
format-patch or send-email and I would understand if you wanted to
deprecate '--cc' from format-patch and 'format.cc' (maybe keep it for 
backwards compat).
