I think it's obnoxious too. The legal disclaimer type are worthless and advertising? I switched news providers because they were advertising in my posts. Some one else mentioned the cruft building up in replies and so on. My opinion is that it's a problem between chair and keyboard. However, if you do go ahead with your blurb, due to PHB or whatever, you could write a little function to strip instances out of messages by delimiting the start and end of your blurb. Starting with sigdashes "-- " and ending with the reverse " --" would seem to be fairly unique and unlikely to colide with any legitamate content. A small regex that matched that starting and ending marks with some of the content would seem to be reliable. A useful side effect would be that good mailreaders can be configured to "strip from sigdashes" on reply, and even better, "strip from sigdashes" on view. :) ~Jason -- _______________________________________________ Visit http://www.mimedefang.org and http://www.roaringpenguin.com MIMEDefang mailing list [email protected] http://lists.roaringpenguin.com/mailman/listinfo/mimedefang
