  I ran a series of tests on my system to see how it would respond,
using my default email and putting the word 'test' into the subject
line. I used this base as my first test:

  Every single time, the response email was sent (and received)
as expected. The second test, using '" "', the "" remained in the
body of the reply email, but the other two were fine.

        Thats why I suggested the single quote.  The single quote
        is stronger then double quote, for example if you have $
        instead of #:

prompt% x=123
prompt% echo "$x"
123
prompt% echo '$x'
$x
prompt% echo "\$x"
$x
