I guess I can save every email I want to print to a file, but I shouldn't have to, and really don't want to.

There is really no absolute way of detecting postscript. Most of these filters assume that if the first two characters passed are %! then it
is postscript code but this character pair does not have to be at the
start of PS code or even anywhere in the code -- it's just a convention
that it should start with these characters; a convention that is mostly
followed.
So it would appear likely your e-mail application is not following the convention. Maybe a blank line precedes the traditional opening
PS line. Or maybe that line is not there at all.
You could perhaps print the e-mail to a file and examine in detail
how it begins. With this information it should be possible to adapt the print filter script to detect the alternative PS introduction.
Or even write a prefilter script that recognises the alternate PS start and converts it to a more conventional start. It might
for example only need to drop a leading new line character.
