I still think it's your mail reader. :refuck:

Or the mailer program on this server... :-/

But definitely not MyBB. :p

My guess is that the mail reader thinks those are quotes.

Example mail message with quotes:

code:
Yes, that is correct.
> OK. So I spam too much?
>> Hey, stop posting so much crap!

Some people might use other characters for the quotes, such as:

code:
User A's reply
| User B's reply
|| User A's original message

See what I'm getting at? :p

The line starting with "|" (or other non-alphanumeric characters) is thought to be a quote. Your mail reader wraps it, then puts what it thinks are the quote markers in front of each line so it's easier to understand.

I'll do some more research on this theory... :dodgy:
