I just type ‘-- ’ on the first line of all the signatures I create in Mail. :)

Note the single space after the dashes. I’m not sure how many parsers care about that, but that’s how the old usenet tradition went so I include it.

I haven’t really payed attention to how well QuoteFix does with removing signatures. Trimming out the unwanted text by hand is such a habit, I don’t even notice.

It's not that I think guns, drugs, prostitution, swimming, eating and reading should be legal. It's just that no one on Earth has the authority to make them illegal.
