I didn't really understand where you're forwarding the mail to. Is
Dovecot also running there?

The extra '>' is added if the other server stores mails in mbox format
and the mail isn't saved with Dovecot LDA. Dovecot currently doesn't
remove the '>' from ">From " lines. Perhaps in future it should.

But are you even running Dovecot in the remote server? Is this a Dovecot
problem at all?
