FWIW, you might like to also wipe it through
Text::Autoformat::autoformat({all => 1})

Other common quote characters include : | * and those five line
paragraph quotes MS products create. Removing these would require some
messy logic or slurping your message whole (local $/;) into a string and
using a regex like:

        s/^-+Original Message-+\nFrom: .*?\nSent: .*?\nTo: .*?\nSubject: .*?//mi
