Re: Mozilla should put the Signature ABOVE the Quoted Text, when "start my reply above the quoted text" is selected in prefs

[Peter Lairo]

if the sig were just plain text (body) and not some weird preformat 
(whatever that is), then nothing would disappear. Why do wec need this 
silly and buggy preformat anyhow? It seems to serve no purpose more 
important than the damage it is causing (editing forwarded mails in the 
preformat part causes all kinds of chaos).
