Yes 0/1 was the cover letter and 1/1 was the actual patch.

I have not found a way of sending, via my 'git send-email' (*), a single patch with its integrated cover-letter at the beginning. I can easily add short notes after a 3-dashes in the commit, but it is not the same as a cover-letter ...

Hopefully, you got the 1/1. Unfortunately, the Git list is rejecting my patches (and just my patches), as sent via send-email, and at the moment I have no way of debugging and diagnosing that issue.
