MIME vs. inline (was Re: Signature in Attachment)

Actually, this may be a dumb question, what are some of those reasons (or 
can you point me to some documentation if this is a re-run for everyone 
else)?  I'm not disagreeing with you, but I do have this discussion around 
here every so often with people who prefer inline signatures, and I'm not 
usually making very forceful arguments - especially not to people who don't 
really understand MIME and aren't always quite sure what their mail client 
is showing them.  "But it's less confusing this way!" (the inline way)

Thanks!
