FYI, I've copied and pasted from some e-mail clients before. 
Microsoft Outlook and other Rich Text mail clients try to put in
"typesetting quotes" rather than the simple ASCII quote
character.  When those (or other "pretty") characters are
pasted into a file for Perl to use, it sees the wrong character and not
the simple ASCII character it was expecting.



Try re-typing the line by hand to see if the \xC2 dissapears.
