Try avoiding the use of anything but alpha and numeric characters in the first 80 characters.

I've taken to just typing "filler" repeatedly in the beginning of PM's sometimes to get past the 80-character problem.

Specific things I've seen cause problems in the first 80 characters are quote marks, <, and >

PS. Write me a PM to let me know if it works.
