Ch 26: The appendfile transport
http://www.exim.org/exim-html-4.63/doc/html/spec_html/ch26.html

See the "check_string" option. A line beginning "From " is a message 
delimiter in "traditional" spool files, and in order to prevent POP/IMAP 
daemons or other MUAs collapsing when reading the spool file, any 
message containing a line *after the start of the message* will have a > 
prepended to the "From " part.

This *should not happen* with the first line of a given message, so 
something is very wrong somewhere.

What mailbox format are you using? Can you post the transport that is 
delivering these messages to the local mailbox?
