The SCHEDULED items inside the quoted text are appearing in my agenda.

Bug, as expected or can I stop that?

I'd imagine enclosing the email text in a #+BEGIN_EXAMPLE block would
make sense (semantically) and also avoid interpretation of SCHEDULED
keyword.

But even using #+BEGIN_COMMENT block, timestamps and SCHEDULED are
found by the agenda.

A workaround for your problem can be setting those timestamps as
inactive.

That does make sense. I need to look into my template then for
journaling email.

That doesn't sound good. Should it?

No, it should not.  But it is costly to parse for all these
special places, and in order to keep the agenda reasonably fast,
this is one of the compromises.
I guess such a case is not very frequent, and I usually work around  
them by inserting a space between the opening angular bracket and the  
time stamp:


#+begin_example
,* test
    SCHEDULED: < 2010-10-10 Sun>
#+end_example

That successfully breaks the timestamp parser, but still
conveys reasonably well what is meant.
