Some  bizarre server en-route which thinks that all mail is HTML or is
being  viewed  and  that  greater-than  signs  need  escaping  to &gt;
wherever  they  occur.  It  is not the originator of the message or we
would  have  all  seen it. It equally not the dutaint server because I
know  that inside out and know that it wouldn't do that. So, it has to
have happened after it left dutaint and before you received it.
