Not sure if the : would affect it or not, as that is considered a
header line, while just "From " is a separator in some mail box
storages.

I just tested a different mail server, and I think I agree now. I
thought it was something TB might have been doing. What it appears to
be is mail servers that store mail in an mbox style file escape the
"From " with a >. I just tested on another mail server that stores
mail in Maildir format, and it doesn't do it.
