One of the biggest no-no's with ascii-art is the ascii control codes. 
Email is usually just plain text, and the extended ascii and control
codes (ie hold down Alt and type in a number) can crash some systems.  I
suggest that you just send plain text, or (if you must) HTML to the tune
of <blink>My Signature</blink>.  It doesn't AFAIK crash systems but it
does really annoy people.  I stress again, just send plain text.
