Do you mean that your mail client doesn't know what to do with them (in
which case I agree with the replies that you've already gotten, and I've
used both Mutt and Thunderbird with good results), or does your mail
program understand what they are and what to do with them, but the
signatures do not appear to be valid?
If it's the latter problem, you may have something at the MTA level mucking
with the MIME parts of the message before it gets to your inbox. Adding a
signature or corporate disclaimer or something maybe (though that's usually
a problem on the outgoing side), or wrapping lines for some (really no)
reason, or doing something else to somehow alter the message?
All these things and the many variations on them are all broken, but they
do happen anyway.
