No, there isn't, not when it leaves the poster's MTA. This is the same for your proposal and for "l=". People have learned to deal with top-posting, they could have learned to deal with adding all new content at the end, too. But they haven't. > By contrast, "l=" leaves the appended bit unsigned. But it need not. The MLM (or its MTA) can sign the whole message on the way out. So this too is the same for your proposal and for "l=". > This scheme does sign individual parts as well, OK. As long as individual parts are signed, we can have a way to get at the trust-per-part issue, and MUAs and Mediators have a way to partially quote preserving upstream signatures (although the granularity of the trimming is awfully coarse!)
