Well, see, this is where us, nerds, people in the know, you know, the ones
who know the standards and abide by them instead of break them know that most
servers separate message by a line that starts with "From ". Any line in the
body that starts with that sequence needs to be escaped and the code to escape
it is the > character. The POP server is supposed to remove any encoding
when sending to you but, alas, a lot of the newest ones do not.
But, of course, don't take my word for it, chances are I'm just yanking
your chain.
