I guess GitHub CLI is kind of porcelain for the `git format-patch` and `git am`. Although I don’t know of any git commands that will send or fetch the `.patch` files to the mailbox.

git send-email and git imap-send can send to a mailbox (the latter can be used to upload files to an IMAP folder). I don't know of a command that could download patches from a mailbox (though it would be nice if git provided one that would work with IMAP and/or NNTP).
