Subject: Re: db vs. file/ other stuff
I actually wrote a mailet to do that rather recently, and it's in the latest
version of CVS. It's called AddFooter and can add a text message to both
text and html messages. It also determines if the message has attachments
and/or alternative content type (both text and html versions) and should do
a respectable job of adding the footer in those cases. The mailet API
hasn't changed, so you can probably get it from the daily build or from CVS.
