    Hmm.  What mailer did you used to send the message?  Maybe it wasn't
sending a MIME message?  We know that #13328 doesn't show the extra >
for non-MIME messages.

    I was using Emacs Rmail, but not the pure emacs 28.1 -q because I
need to change settings to send email.  Let me see if I can try a purer
reenactment.

    Can you check the mbox I sent to see if you see extra >s for the
last 2 messages there?  Can you send me the pieces of your mbox with the
2 test messages you sent (use binary attachment to avoid corruption)?

    Clearly, one of our two set ups is different.  :-(
