This sounds extremely unlikely.  A malformed address should have no  
bearing on the rest of the message body.

I can't actually test this locally, since my local SMTP server will  
decline the message as it interprets '>' as a local user name, and  
that user doesn't exist.  At a minimum you need to provide an SMTP log  
(see imp/config/backends.php).

For the record, ">" is a valid e-mail address.  By itself, it means  
the local user named >.  (A bare >, without quotes, is NOT a valid  
e-mail address.  But this is correctly caught by our parser and  
rejected).
