RE: Accessing data posted from a different URL

If the form is submitted from a web browser, the POSTed data IS  
available/visible (print_r) in the new web page.
If the form--that is, any form--is submitted from an email client  
(any email client), the POSTed data IS NOT available/visible in the  
new web page.

So... I can think of three explanations:
1. The email client (Mail or Outlook Express) is stripping the POST  
data on Submit.
[/snip]

Try it with a different mail client, such as Eudora, to confirm.

2. The web browser (Safari, Firefox) is stripping incoming POST data  
if it's coming from outside the application.
[/snip]

There would be no 'incoming' POST data to a browser. That is not how HTTP works.

[snip]
3. PHP somehow knows if the form data is being POSTed from inside the  
web browser or not (and fails on the latter).
[/snip]

Doubtful. PHP knows nothing except for what it sees. If there is POST data, it sees it, if there is no POST data, it will not.
