After viewing the page source from an email from a recruiter, I came upon this information in the "View the Page Source: 

     <form method="POST" name="folderForm" enctype="multipart/form-data">
        <input type="hidden" name="fid" value="">
        <input type="hidden" name="update" value="">
        <input type="hidden" name="remoteAccountUID" value="">
        <input type="hidden" name="resetAccount" value="">
     </form>

Can you tell me what this might mean?

If that is the entire form, it doesn't seem to do anything. There is no "action" URL for the form and no submit button. Perhaps the message was copied and edited from one with a form. Using a normal email editor, you would not be able to see that there was form "debris" in the source code of the message.

Edit: In a normal web page, a script could build additional information and functionality into the form, but in an email message, users usually are protected from scripts to some extent.
