The signature looks like an attachment in Outlook Express, and is not
obtrusive now that you've removed the receipt request. HOWEVER, I expect it
probably looks like a string of nonsense to the digest subskribers. I think
it would be best if OM messages were not digitally signed, and do not
request receipts. Strange thing, this is the first time that I've seen these
2 concerns come up on the list. What's the current number of members...
500+?
Just my 2¢.
