Hmm... Hard to do in message bodies, per se, I'd think, because there
are lots of legitimate reasons why someone would include an email address
in their message and so just looking for mailto URLs in the body and
removing them might cripple some otherwise useful articles.
But as for signatures, would just filtering off after "--<space>" be
sufficient, or is that not widely-enough accepted as a "my .sig begins
here" convention to use for this purpose [and/or are too many list
members probably not clueful enough to be able to get that set up
properly in any event...]
