In the light of your comments re html and seeing that your signature
separator is incorrect (I had to delete it manually in this reply)
and your signature consists of (counting, counting...) 18 lines
instead of the four (max) that are usually recommended, perhaps you
could improve on that. 

I have never seen a list with so much information (redundant, in my
view) at the bottom of many mails. If you would like the world to
know what mailer and what OS you're using, isn't there a facility in
The Bat that would allow extra headers to be inserted, as in 
X-Mailer: The Bat 1.51, etc? 

Why put a PGP signature at the bottom of a mailing to a list, other
than for the simple reason that The Bat can? I have been reading this
list on a newsreader which usually strips out these things, and many
set their reader to reject html mails - but they also reject anything
without correct signature separators or too long signatures.

That's one rant off my chest.
