There's more now in your email, I think maybe it's triggered by your
signature file and some gmail web interface bug. Or it just tries to
force quote using html.

There's some html email disease inside google, where some parts of the
company seems to think that html email is _good_.

The official gmail Android app is a big pain, int hat it doesn't
*have* a plain-text mode, even though it knows how to format the
plain-text part of the email.

You might want to be on the lookout for some bad drugs at the office.
Because the world would thank you if you took them away from the gmail
app people.
