        No, it would still be put as I understand it.  When putting your
mailtpl file, this would show up, along with things like welcome messages,
etc.  I have my signature in one of my welcome messages I think because I
neglected to strip it, and honestly have as of yet, not had to change it
(hm, actually it DOES need changing) so it has stayed.  Avoiding the use
of ``system added'' signatures is well worth the loss of ``information
space'' that it creates.  If you MUST put something of that variety into a
message that is going out, then put it in the headers, as an X-Comment or
something.
