Ah. Interesting..I didn't know that. I agree then, people should use a cut-mark. DW> I really have trouble understanding why this is such an issue. Not to me it isn't..I already use one as you'll see. I thought including it in the listserv footer might help matters, but apparently it won't.

Some people don't feel that simply a name is a signature. And that asking them to change just so that others can avoid having to delete that one word while replying is asking too much. That's open to debate, but personally, if you consider that your name is already in the sender field, including it in the message body above the cutmark doesn't really add anything to your message. Therefore it could be considered a signature even if it isn't included along with anything else, and should be below the cutmark.
