Please make sure that your signature is less than 76 columns in width. 99% 
of email programs wraps lines that are longer than 80 columns. Though most 
programs wrap at 80 columns, some programs/sendmail configurations wrap at 
smaller column size. I've found that I can usually get away with a 
76-column .sig =]

A man's life is but a war,
Not a war fought for a state,
But one fought against oneself.
He need never to fight alone;
For he shall always have 
The companions of the heart.
