If I receive such a mail, then as far as I am concerned I *am* the 
intended recipient, and anyway my own policy overrules any policy that 
there might be stated in the mail.  But as you say, there's no point 
in arguing over this piece of sillyness by your lawyers.

So read the archive of the mailing list where this has been discussed 
to death already, with several recipes for achieving basically what 
they say they want, but forget any idea of trying to impose a font and 
size - even if you send HTML, then anyone with any sense of email 
security is going to read plain text, and ignore anything called out 
from the HTML.

Yes, a policy at your of requiring a .signature file from all senders 
is certainly one way of dealing with the situation, and seems to be 
the only viable way of sending properly-signed mail without it getting 
corrupted by your mailer on its way out.  But if that's not a concern 
to those legal idiots, then there *are* other ways, implemented under 
the scope of exim, and I'm sure they'll be in the archives.
