Just curious, but what would be the problem in looking for an html message and if the message is html, placing the footer directly in front of the </body> tag - or if that is missing, in front of the </html> tag - or if that is missing, simply putting it at the end of the message.
That seems like it would accommodate 99% of the situations discussed here. The coding for that would also be fairly straightforward.
You would think. But many HTML authoring tools (including browsers and MUAs that create HTML-formatted e-mail messages) make it more complex than that. The stuff right above the </body> tag may not be anywhere close to the bottom of the page as it is viewed by the recipient. Or, it may be hidden by a change in font or font color, or who knows what else.
You really do have to be able to parse all the HTML pretty much perfectly.
