Proper mail clients insert those when replying to messages. Are you using
Outlook? I'm not familiar with it, but maybe this can be of help:

The recipient's email client does the marking when it opens a message.
Normally you don't have to do anything at all. If you try to add your
own markings, you may mess up the correct nesting of the replies.
