Interesting, but Evolution 1.2.1 (and 1.0.8 before it) only showed the list server appended signature to me, and none of the message body. I was hoping that forwarding it as an attachment (rather than in line) would have the same effect. It's odd, but this only seems to happen with [some] mail from that list, and it only chokes when I view it with Evolution. (In other words, Evolution seems to do fine with mail from all of my other sources, and kmail and mutt seem to display the body of these messages.) Apparently, Evolution is seeing the list signature as the last alternative of the body of the message.
