And here's the parent

parse_reply() isn't able to separate the reply from the parent in this case, it appears because the parent is lacking '>' characters in front. I would have thought this case unusual, but it seems Yahoo mail uses this style by default. Has anyone gotten parse_reply to work with Yahoo mail replies?

    Just ran into this as well. Below is a snippet from the text version of the email, as received by Mandrill. The html version of the email does contain quotes, I believe, but that brings up other issues.

    Anyone solve this elegantly?

    Has anyone solved this issue? We're trying to integrate SparkPost into our application and running into the same issue. Also with the ThunderBird client.
