It's kind of pointless to run checkpatch on a corrupted patch (the email
was quoted-printable and you didn't decode it back to text).  Of course
it's also better to send non-mangled patches.

You should use Thunderbird to send you patchs. And check it by send the mail to yourself.

Alternatively, use a text file as attachment. It doesn't work as well but then
it comes through unmangled.
