Description

I just received a mail from keybase.io notifying me of a new follower: strangely the letters in the subject and first paragraph are linewise reversed. The paragraphs below are correct again.
This issue isn't related to K9, because the same appearance does show in the Gmail app as well. A screen shot of this is attached below:

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Use the attached screenshot as the symptom reference, reproduce a follow notification, and trace the notification-mail generation until the subject and first paragraph formatting is identified. Done means those lines render normally while the already-correct paragraphs remain unchanged.
