Doesn't recognize an indented quote as anything special. For many email
clients <b>this is bold</b>, about the only way to pass is to HTML
quote/escape perhaps like this: \<\b\>

Newer versions of some email clients have fixed this issue, its clearly
in the security realm. OTOH spammers know it and a lot of spam is in
HTML in a plain text segment.
