"If it's escaped in the email, this is most likely caused by the PHP setting 
magic_quotes_gpc being on. This is one of the most ill-conceived features ever 
included in PHP and should be turned off in your configuration." - Holotech 

The way to get around it is to add the following line to your config file for 
each field that you think will have this problem. 

$field = stripslashes($field);
