My Dear Abbas: I don't underestand why everybody is attacking me today! Maybe there is something wrong with me, I don't know :-) Anyway Abbas, rules about email and newsgroup signatures are clearly discussed and defined in the netiquette. I have read it and it covers about the style of your signature, about how long it should be, and so on, but never in it have I seen that putting personal beleifs and quotas in signature is wrong. Signature is a signature Abbas. It should be regarded as so. Signature is where people usually put something they like, something they beleive in. some people also use it as a humorous tool. But, your signature doesn't have to be about your subject of your message. Indeed it is something seperate, and completely different than the message itself. I usually put a quota or a statement that I see somewhere, and that I like, as my sig. And I also usually change my sig once a month. Remember that sig is put there by the mail client automatically, and I can't edit it each time I send a message. I have the right to talk about my beleifs Abbas. Specially in a signature, where I beleive it is appropriate to do so. However, I clearly mark my signature as one, using the famous '-- ' sign. If you don't like signatures, or my signature, then you can simply tell your mail client to ignore signatures and do not show them. It is feasable (and indeed very easy) for someone to ignore signatures (I think all email clients support this feature). But it is not doable for me to edit each signature, because someone in a ML might not like it. If you plan to respond to this, I invite you to do so off-topic, as this is a discussion between me and you, and I think it doesn't interest all parties involved. Cheers -- //Signature deleted as per Abbas's request !!
