I don't think so, as I have not observed that in the past. What you are probably seeing on your end is kmail's editor stripping end-of-line spaces and/or only recognizing the *last* 2-dash+space sig indicator. To test, you would need to open the message with an editor you *knew* did not strip end-of-line white space, before kmail reads it, ie: pico, nano, joe, jed ... I have observed tofu with included quoted signatures that did include the space after the double dash. And the quoted signature block from me as you present does *not* include the trailing space -- Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://counter.li.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
