Strange quote rendering in moderator email #220

Today I've received a email with the following body from loglist:

In my email clients (both Yandex web mail client and Mailspring) it got rendered as this:
It obviously tried to send a HTML message, but something was very mangled during the sending. Looks like the (multi-line?) subject was somehow interleaved with the actual message body: probably the subject was meant to be "https://t.me/radio_t_chat/65425 Grigory Bakunov, [11.07.2...", but the mail server has inserted its headers in between the subject lines, so the message structure was completely destroyed, and the headers Content-Type and Content-Transfer-Encoding went to the message body instead of the message header.
The Unicode message text then got broken due to missing Content-* headers.
Probably, it has something to do with the link in the first line of the message? Dunno.
For comparison, here's a non-broken message I've received a while ago:
