No, I'm afraid, doing this will make the quoted text part of the _body_ of the
message.

I was not advocating adding such knowledge. My suggestion was to make cron add
proper Content-Type, so that the /recepient's e-mail program/ will render the
message correctly. My scripts generate HTML, someone else could be generating
JPG images (from their web-camera, every morning)...

The empty line is inserted by cron before any of the job's own output...
This method will not work, unless the e-mail reader (incorrectly) acts upon
parts of the body as if they were headers...
Thanks! Yours,
