Re: [newbie] bitchx and creating a signature file

Ok,

I don't think anyone answered this one yet, so here's the story:

BitchX is a console IRC client, it comes on your mandrake 7.0-2 CD. Don't know
about earlier Mdrake versions, but I'm sure it's on those as well. If not,
search and download on http://freshmeat.net

Signature files are simple: just put the text you want as signature in a file
called .signature, placed in your homedir. Mose email clients default to this
file for their sig-files. If not, there should be some config option to set it.

Practical hint: it's more or less a standard to start signatures with the string
"-- " (without quotes) on one line, so _good_ email apps know it's a signature,
and strip it off on replying to that mail. Nobody wants replies on replies on
replies... with 30 consecutive signatures on it.
