Subject: .signature options

This is something that I'd like to see in pine (among many other thing).

If, when adding an address, you could also toggle a Y/N .signature flag. 
The reason is that when doing administrative work on several of my mailing
lists, it becomes old to have to edit out my .sig every time (because the
server gets mad if you have error producing lines).

Building on that, a field in the address file allowing you to designate
one of several signatures would also be interesting.  (say one field you
edit with a number 0-9 or an N, default being 0.  You then have a seperate
file or as part of the .pinerc where you can designate each # as a
different file.)  Could be nice for companies where anything going outside
local needs to have a large disclaimer, while in house then need little or
nothing on the end.

The first option has been decided against to keep the number of queries 
to a minimum.  Either option is valid, we just decided to go the other way.

Something related to variable signatures may be possible though.

If you put your signature in a file called ".s" or something else nice 
and short all you have to do is type four characters: ^R . s RETURN to 
have it inserted where you want.  You could have several of them too: .s1 
.s2 .s3 .... Not real fancy and automatic, but workable.
