MT-NewsWatcher has built-in functionality to control how signatures are placed in messages. So you shouldn't be typing the dashes manually if you are using MT-NewsWatcher. Instead, simply: 1. Open MT-NewsWatcher. 2. From the menu bar, choose Special > Personalities. 3. At the top of the window, click the Headers * Misc. tab. 4. Click the "Signature & Headers" button. 5. Clear (uncheck) the "Insert '-- ' before signature" checkbox. 6. Clear the "Append signature to messages" checkbox. Does your Signature & Headers dialog box not have these options?: <http://img41.imageshack.us/img41/3796/signatureheaders.png> -- Send responses to the relevant news group rather than email to me.

Ah ok. You had me wondering! : ) -- Send responses to the relevant news group rather than email to me. E-mail sent to this address may be devoured by my very hungry SPAM filter.

It was just an exercise to see if the sig dash would not be copied when replying to a post if there is no text below the sig dash. -- m-m http://www.mhmyers.com |
