 The reset password link is stripped out by some email services due to it
 being surrounded by the < > symbols.  Presumably this is part of an email
 filtering service that only allows specific html tags to prevent xss.
 This issue was encountered using Microsoft Exchange.

 A workaround has been implemented on our local wp-login.php that involved
 change the < to ( and > to ).  This change resolved the issue on our local
 environment.  But, this change may not be appropriate to all environment.
 Discovery needs to be completed to determine what non-cosmetic purpose the
 < > symbols provide for other environments.
