I could not agree more. I have been signing all mail for the past two months. Now that evolution can always do it by default it is a lot easier to do. The social awareness that it raises can not be underestimated in a time like this. I am curious as to why sinatures are now smaller and less intrusive? --=20 +------------------+---------------------------------------------------+
