Have you tried message-mode (rather than mail-mode). MML (the > mime support) should just work.
I do use both (ie currently in message-mode), but can't break the RMAIL habit so I get mail-mode when I do C-u R. As it happens my problem is trivial, since mmencode is just an 8.3 truncation of mimencode; I've solved it before by creating a symlink and this time by conditional code in .emacs.
