Odd. If I copy and paste from Thunderbird, its fine. But if I save the body out as an attachment from mutt, it fails.

I wonder if it has to do with the From header appearing in the top of the body; this header has to be escaped with a leading space in mbox format. It looks like Thunderbird might be doing some magic to remove that leading space from the context lines, while mutt isn't.

Next time, don't include the first From line?
