You don't mention exactly what is not working, but are you sure you've
set up mail-yank-hooks and autoloading correctly?  The top part of the
README describes what you need to do once the patches have been
installed, or the overloads set up. Here's the relevent excerpt:

	README> Supercite 2.1 conforms to this interface, as does VM. So,
	README> to access supercite from VM (or other packages, once
	README> overloading or patching has been completed), simply add
	README> this to your .emacs file:

	| (autoload 'sc-cite-original "supercite"  "Hookified Supercite 2.1" t)
	| (autoload 'sc-cite          "supercite"  "Interactive Supercite 2.1" t)
	| (setq mail-yank-hooks 'sc-cite-original)
	| (setq mh-yank-hooks 'sc-cite-original)    ; for mh-e users

What you describe above is only 1/2 the puzzle. Hope this helps.
