It's part of mail-indent-citation (in sendmail.el):
(save-excursion
(let ((end (set-marker (make-marker) (region-end))))
(goto-char (region-beginning))
(while (< (point) end)
(insert mail-yank-prefix)
(forward-line 1))))
mail-yank-prefix is "> " in this case.
This assumes you have the block of text marked as region.
