            Bug ID: 3355
           Summary: Incorrect quoting when replying to a news article that
                    contains <<some text in here>>
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: Claws Mail
           Version: 3.11.1
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3

When replying to a news article that contained <<some text inside less-than and
great-than signs>>  The quoting mechanism the creates the reply incorrectly
inserts "signs>>" on each line following the line that ends with <<some text
inside less-than and great-than signs>>

Example of original news article:
Line 1: The quoting mechanism in claws breaks with <<some text inside less-than
and great-than signs>>

Line 2: Maybe I'm lucky to encounter so many strange bugs in claws.

Line 3: Hopefully the maintainers appreciate that some of us take the
time to report bugs

Line 4: It's not a trivial amount of time to report bugs.


The reply will look like so:


Line 1: > The quoting mechanism in claws breaks with <<some text inside
less-than and great-than

Line 2: > signs>> Maybe I'm "lucky" to encounter so many strange bugs in claws.

Line 3: > signs>> Hopefully the maintainers appreciate that some of us take the
time to report bugs

Line 4: > signs>> It's not a trivial amount of time to report bugs.

Notice that signs>> is repeated on each line of the reply until a blank line is
encountered.
