Bad signatures on Gmail messages

I just wanted to let people know that I finally woke up and realized that
messages I was signing and sending with Gmail are bad because the mail client
is inserting linebreaks in order to wrap lines. This is standard behavior for
a lot of MUAs so that certain mail readers don't have problems displaying
them. From now on, any messages I sign will be written offline with short
lines, signed, and then pasted into my mail client, so that the signed message
already contains the correct line breaks.
