Subject: Signature

I am wondering how to create a "signature" that will be tacked on to the 
end of all my out-going e-mail messages.  (The one you see below is 
currently saved in my Scrapbook and cut-and-pasted every time I send an 
e-mail.)

Thanks in advance for any help!

	Simply make a file called .signature and put whatever you like as 
your signature in it for the contents...

create a file and call it ".signature"  without the "".

and put it in your home directory.

that's it

Rick.

I have lots of info about this in my Signature, Finger, and Customized
Headers FAQ:

I hope it's helpful,

Hi!

How could you use _two_ signatures in Pine? One for public , one for 
private...
thanks,

Use the ctrl-r-feature when the cursor is in the body of the mail you're 
writing.

Bye.

Yes, reading in a signature with your editor's "read file" command is the way
it always works.  But I believe that Karoly wants to know whether PINE can
have a "list of signatures".

It sure would be nice if you could define a context for signatures, eg via some
kind of "rule file".  Scenario:
	if (to == address1)		then appendsig file1
	if (to =  group1)		then appendsig group1sig
	if (to =  localhostname)	then appendsig companysig
	if (to =  adressoffriend)	then appendsig funsig
	if (true)			then appendsig personalsig

It would be even nicer if the signatures get stripped to 4 lines and 80
columns.  :-)

ELM distinguishes a "localsignature" and "remotesignature".
Does PINE have such a feature?

Along these lines, is there any way to set up a *directory* or number of 
.sigs for use within Pine, automatically seleted either upon startup or 
upon replying/forwarding/bouncing?  Tin has this option by specifying a 
*directory* where random .sigs can be found in place of an actual 
.signature file.  Can pine do this?
