I applaud the author of KMail for supporting this standard, and I would encourage all mail user agents to support it. I use Mutt, for example, and it REALLY helps when you have a lot of email to read, that the signature can be made a lower contrast. If you KNOW the sender, you probably already know what's in the signature, and if you are reading a mailing list, I usually don't care much about the signature unless I particularly like or dislike the posting, or maybe if I have extra time to spare. It's one of that class of conveniences that is not for the sender, but the recipient. Honor the author's decision and keep it in. -- Jan Wilson, SysAdmin _/*]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Corozal Junior College | |:' corozal.com corozal.bz Corozal Town, Belize | /' chetumal.com & linux.bz Reg.
