[MlMt] removing forwarding symbol ">"

[Pete Resnick]

Redirect is different than forward. Redirect has the original author's 
email address in the From field. Forward has yours. Redirect is when you 
want to have someone else reply to the message and leave the original 
completely intact. Forward is when you want someone to see the message, 
and possibly add some of your own text at the beginning.

"Forward as attachment" is a forward in that you can add your own text 
at the beginning, but it leaves the original message without changes. 
With a regular "Forward", you can do some editing of the original, but 
in MailMate's case, it puts the quotes in front of the lines. I'm not a 
big fan of that. I mostly use "Forward as attachment".
