I think I found out why the message body of my messages is stripped out. It appears Jive is filtering the content of email messages with the following regular expression:
/**
* Simple bean for storing the contents of an incoming email.
*/
public class Message {
// ripped from EmailParserImpl
private static final Pattern originalMessagePattern = Pattern.compile("(-{5,}|_{5,}|^.*wrote:$)(\\s*.*)*", Pattern.MULTILINE);
My first impression is that this implementation is somewhet simplistic. For instance, it doesn't take into account whether you just quoted a single line or all of the message. For a great example of that, look at the House of Fusion email archives, where you can see selectiive quotes are allowed, but complete quotes of full messages are filtered out. It also doesn't do pattern matching on the standardized string that starts a signature.
More insight into the behaviour of the email integration can be obtained from the sourcecode of the Jive advancedemail plugin. Although I am not sure it is the same version as Adobe is running, there are some comments and TODO's in the code about behaviour I am not seeing in the email from these forums, but it still helps to understand what is happening.
