I think there's a script that looks for mail of the form:

One or more lines not beginning with greater than sign

> Followed by one or more lines beginning with greater than sign

And decides that they're top-posts.

Since lilypond code  quite often looks like:

notes = {a b c}
\score {
<<
        \notes
>>

This triggers the script.  You can work around it by putting a line
beginning with a greater than sign before your lilypond code:

> I'm not top posting

notes = {a b c}
\score {
<<
        \notes
>>

I'm not saying I approve of either the mechanism or the purpose of the
script.  I'm just saying that's what it does.
