It's just the e-mail headers, quite normal.

It's a reply, not a fresh e-mail. That's all. Headers are in every e-mail, but you don't always see them. Think of it as a postmark

I used to use hotmail for personal emails, but since using GMail I'm a complete convert.

As an example, a guy replied to an email today from a convo we had 6months ago. The email came up with our previous mails as well. Genius bit of coding and sooo easy to use. It takes a while to get used to, but once you do, piece of cake.

Theres a lot less crap included compared to hotmail. No annoying news feeds and adverts.

If anyone wants an account, just email me your email address via my profile

The specs for email messages say that the headers and body should be seperated by a blank line. What has happened is that a blank line has been inserted into the headers, meaning that you are seeing the rest being displayed as the message body.

I've seen certain Anti-spam software butcher message headers like this - as Blairout says, wouldn't worry about it.
