hi ... most mail-readers leave the message intact when reading ...
so the .sig is seen ... but replaces the .sig with your own
when 'reply to message' is activated if the message includes "-- "
(without the quotes)

perhaps your mailer doesn't behave like that ... in which case
the request above would be of no consequence to you

i have a vague recollection that usenet protocol suggests
the use of that separator (can't remember its name either)
if a .sig is used

in this particular message i 'clipped' your .sig myself
(no offence meant:)
