See the Documentation/SubmittingPatches document from the kernel source tree.  
You may also read this document via the git web interface at 
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=blob;f=Documentation/SubmittingPatches

As far as I know only with the web GUI of gmail is problematic. You may still 
use your gmail account with other email clients. See 
Documentation/email-clients.txt or 
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=blob;f=Documentation/email-clients.txt
