By "mail" I mean the full mail (with headers). : Some headers are not contained in the signature (like the : "delivered to" headers) because it is normal to be added after the : signature but others (like subject or a footnote in message body : advertising a service (common in free email services)) should not : be changed after the signature. : : Common email clients SHOULD NOT create such problems. Homemade on : the other hand... : : Christos Triantafyllidis : Christos, I use O2k, and I'm a paying customer of both Lycos, and Yahoo, so they're not tacking on any footers for ads or the like.
