Sent from my Iphone is the automatic signature that comes with the iphone mail 
app.  You can go into settings and change it if you want.  the reason I kept it 
is so that if I make a spelling error, people will know that I am using a 
mobile device.  For my work, people have different expectations if you are 
emailing on the computer versus emailing from a mobile device.  Just my 
perception, and I'm not sure this is the case everywhere.

People, I have a rather startling discovery to share, and I share it because I 
do not understand it.

Why do people add "Sent from my iPhone" or similar weird signatures that make 
it sound like the email was sent through a mobile device, while the user agent 
shows that they have been using Microsoft Outlook or Apple Mail on a computer?

I might be missing something… But does this make a message look cooler?

Sorry if this post offends anyone, I am just curious to understand this. One 
possibility may be that the email somehow goes through a proxy and leaves the 
outbox through a computer… But I kind of doubt it.
