Oben, your initial explanation of the signature appears below, extracted
from the archive. The archive is the digest version. As you can see, it's
full of mime stuff and the digital signature at the end. Please set your
defaults to plain text, no signature, no receipt requested for any OM list
messages. I know this is a pain, if you usually do otherwise, but if you
don't, I believe you'll hear a lot of noise from the digest population. I
think Clyde Soles already put it pretty bluntly.
As I said before, list subscribers (with modern mailers) have little problem
but for the return receipt that you've already changed. The digest people
get all the extraneous stuff as shown below. Also, it shows up in the
archives, which all users search on once in a while.
Hope the content below makes the problem clear.

Maybe someone could show me what it looks like on the digest?

In case anyone is wondering what on earth the attachment << smime.p7s >> =
in my messages is; its a digital signature. I obtained a FREE =
certificate from www.thawte.com that vouches for my identity. The =
certificate they have issued is used to sign my emails and means that =
nobody but me could have possibly sent that email as the signature =
contains timestamp as well as checksum info.
If others also have a certificate and have signed their messages then =
very secure communications can be had by the two parties as the =
certificate allows encryption of the email to that person only. Its a =
public key encryption system and the attachment is a very small =
signature file. If you use Outlook express you may see a little red =
ribbon attached to my email vouching that the email has indeed come from =
me.
I repeat that its FREE to get a certificate from Thawte (a Verisign =
company.. they sell certificates for US$100!!). Its pretty cool.
