In my experience, yes.

There's a section in Documentation/SubmittingPatches about using the imap interface to upload patches into gmail's "Drafts" folder. SubmittingPatches then says to "Go to your Gmail account, open the Drafts folder, and find the patch email, fill in the To: and CC: fields and send away". I tried that once and the gmail web interface still introduced new lines. Either I'm doing something wrong, or that document should be changed to clarify that the web interface cannot be used even if the patch is uploaded to the Drafts folder via imap.
