>Description:
Mutt adds ">" to a line in a message body that begins with "\n\nFrom " (a blank
line from followed by a line that begins with "From "). I've attached a test
message body that reliably reproduces the problem. The attached message body is
rendered thus:
--- begin msg ---
From: Kurt Wall <kwall@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
To: kwall@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Date: Mon, 26 Dec 2005 09:24:26 -0500
Subject: Test Message
This is a normal first line.
>From here, this should be the first line of the second paragraph.
And the third line.
--- end mesg ---
>How-To-Repeat:
cat test.msg | mutt -s "Test Message" email@xxxxxxxxxxx
>Fix:
Unknown
