You can't. The "-- " (notice the space) is the standard signature
delimeter and must not be removed.
See http://www.chemie.fu-berlin.de/outerspace/netnews/son-of-1036.html#4.3
,---- [ Quoting Son-of-RFC-1036: ]
| If a poster or posting agent does append a signature to an article, the
| signature SHOULD be preceded with a delimiter line containing (only) two
| hyphens (ASCII 45) followed by one blank (ASCII 32). Posting agents
| SHOULD limit the length of signatures, since verbose excess bordering on
| abuse is common if no restraint is imposed; 4 lines is a common limit.

Intelligent newsreaders (including Mozilla) recognize a correct signature
and cut it off when replying.
