    Same applies for Gravity and Agent.

    Also for Mozilla Thunderbird, which is the first package
    I've found that's good enough to replace OE.

    Only thing is, it doesn't apply to OE or Thunderbird for me,
    because I'm with Arthur in hating preview panes. The first
    thing I do upon installing a new mail/newsreader is to
    disable the preview pane, and if I can't do that then the
    chances are I'll uninstall it within a couple of days.

    I really don't see the problem with leaving helens sig in
    that last post. The resultant post itself wasn't huge,
    and didn't lead to lots of scrolling down.

    It makes the difference between being able to read the
    entire post in the preview pane, and having to scroll down.

    As I'm not an OE user I can't realy blame that product
    (shame). However, I can blame Helen's sig.

    I've no objection to your sig's text, merely its
    formatting. Try adding a space after the first two
    hyphens: "-- ".

    No thank you, Inspector.

    Why not?

    Probably because it wouldn't work - Outhouse Excuse trims
    trailing spaces automatically [1], which is one of the many
    reasons why many people consider it not to be a Proper
    Newsreader (TM)

    [1] although this can apparently be fixed by using OE
