The destruction was that your " characters (0x22) are translated into “
characters (0x201c) (and so on), so it's not valid Emacs Lisp any more.
Please adjust the mail software you're using, because none of the code
examples you're posting can be used by other people.  (And re-send the
example for bug reproduction.)
