True, it will make tracing the mail extremely simple if nothing is
done to strip the signature out. Where I disagree is where Hal appears to
disagree--it is too simple to accidentally cut off the rest of your message
by putting a line starting with "--" in your message. I think a "kill line"
would be best. Anything after that line is ignored.
