Eddie Kovsky 803cfe2635 Documentation: Add note on sending files directly with Mutt
Like 'git send-email', Mutt can also be used to send patches generated
with 'git format-patch'. This works regardless of the editor the
contributor has set up to use with Mutt.

Giedrius Statkevičius d50ca07863 Documentation/email-clients.txt: Fix one grammar mistake, add extra info about TB
Fix one grammar mistake (Allows->Allow) and add extra information about
the external editor add-on of Thunderbird: the developer must make sure
that their editor doesn't fork (IOW it mustn't return before closing)
thus they should be careful how they configure the addon. Furthermore,
add a tip how to do it with gvim.

Just stick to facts that are useful regarding working on Linux.
