The answer is:
Under Solaris2.3 /bin/mail doesn't include the messages with
quoting the "From"-line. But there is a another command
/bin/mailcompat which every user should be run. It creates
under the $HOME-directory a .forward-file with following entry
"|/usr/bin/mailcompat <user>"
<user> must be replaced with the users name.
Now all mail will be converted to SunOs4.1.x styled mail and the
included message will be quoted.
