>Description:
When output of an Alpha console session which contains SRM's chevron `>>>' 
prompt is included in an email to port-alpha%netbsd.org@localhost the prompt is 
shown as a vertical bar on the mail archive Web page, e.g.:

http://mail-index.netbsd.org/port-alpha/2009/05/28/msg000285.html

I guess the program that converts the email to html confuses the >>> prompt 
with the `>' character used to denote a line which is being replied to.  It 
would be nice if it didn't do that.  It makes the console output hard to read.
