  I can't imagine how you can trick SeaMonkey into doing it your way
  unless you're manually adding your first name to every message.

  Actually, the signature line in question _is_ added manually; I
  change it for various contexts. The rest -- my address -- is the sig
  file. And I'm using Pegasus Mail in any case.

  Perhaps Pegasus expects that you should add the "-- " as the first line
  *within* in your sig text. I've encountered a few clients like that over
  the years -- and discarded them.

  As you can see, your inclusion of text on the same line after the
  space prevents my SeaMonkey from recognizing your sig as such, so it
  doesn't automatically snip it when I reply.

  So any time I put "-- " by itself on a line, everything below that is
  snipped?

  Just for kicks, I will manually add a "-- " here. See what happens when
  you select Reply:


My signature is:

Phillip M. Jones, C.E.T.                  "If it's Fixed, Don't Break it"
http://www.phillipmjones.net   mailto:[email protected]

But I use the dash,dash, space so that it only shows the first time I
post in any given thread.

If you notice, when you REPLY to a message with the properly-delimited
signature, the signature is not quoted or included in your reply.  -JW

What I was showing was what my sig file is below the dash, dash, space. If I originate a post then the signature what I have shown But. in any replies although is sent does not show up in replies. Note I do have quote colors and I can see my sig file even in replies but it greyed out.
