I have a single email address. I have used it for 15 years. I use it to send 
email professionally, personally, and for all hobbies. It is checked and read 
by 4 different devices daily. 

There are many instances where the fact that I am communicating from my phone 
is important in my personal and professional life, as a note to explain terse 
replies when on the go, and to let the person know, unlike when I am sitting at 
my desk, that even a quick reply back may go unanswered becuase I am biking, 
driving, or otherwise distracted by the world around me.  

However, when typing long diatribes and rants into the phone while relaxing at 
home, it is not important nor necessary information (I delete it from here when 
I remember to - almost all my posts are from my phone), but the signature is 
useful in other contexts.

So it remains.

If I want encrypted messages, ill send an iMessage directly to a known user. 
This is just passing postcards around - and I am not worried about the validity 
of any sender, including myself. I am long past being fooled by header spoofing 
in email 20 years ago to trick me out pf passwords and account info, nor is any 
of this important secret information.
