One thing that's always stumped me about Subscriptions is why there are pipes (|) that start each line in the mail template. I always remove them. I wanted to ask, what is the purpose of them in the first place?

The purpose is to help the reader
— distinguish "form" text from content and
— recognize field overflow, e.g. when the Subject or LINK lines are too long and wrap to the next line.

In plain text this is a bit of a challenge, but I think the vertical bars should work reasonably well, and they also help the administrator to understand the templates. You are of course welcome to customize the template as you see fit.
