I am reasonably sure you were doing something wrong in the process of
applying. E.g. if you were copy-pasting them from MUA, that's
wrong. In something like Mutt one simply presses "|" and types "git
am". In something like Thunderbird one is supposed to save a message
or several messages in mbox (or Maildir) format and use git am on the
resulting files.

For the Claws Mail specifically I've found these instructions:
