personally, i see the "- --" as a bug from PGP, and a rather stupid
one as well. as if they couldn't get themselves to write the few lines
of code to parse a the complete delimiter string (hey, why else is the
remaining text there? ("-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----", that "BEGIN"
must have some meaning doesn't it?)

but to get back to the original question; i searched the RFC database,
and nowhere I (better: the searchengine :) could find a reference to
'-- ' being a signature that should be cut off replying. i think this
way of replying should be an option, not default. nitpick, i know.

i hate software deciding for me what part of the email i should be
replying to. one of the prominent features of the bat is that it does
not edit emails in any way, i find this one therefore rather
inconsistent. i usually edit away most of the irrelevant text in the
reply anyway.

hmm, yes, thanks to you and peter for the workaround, i thought about
that as well when i woke up this morning :)
