A bigger problem is that your e-mail agent is broken or miss-configured. Something ate the space after the doubled-dash under the word Cheers, so it echoed my whole sig. thats been an email standard for nearly 20 years, that nothing past a \r-- \r is to be included in a reply. And it ate several other linefeeds, resulting in very long lines with run together words in the rest of my message. Maybe its some elderly windows thing that never learned about utf8 fonts? Yes, according to the headers your path to the outside world is 100% microsoft, often with outlook in the path. Outlook has been known to ignore many of the RFC's governing email formats, and stripping linux/unix linefeeds is one of the more nagging bits. There is a thunderbird emailer that runs on windows, you might give it a try. Duck-duck-go it and read about it. I don't use it myself as this is a linux only house. It does run on linux, but I like kmail even better. And I am not trying to be dictatorial, but I am trying to advise you that its time to upgrade. Take care now Larry, and thank you.
