   I agree completely with this. It seems that the .signatures were limited
to 4 lines yet I receive many mail messages that the headers far exceed the
body of the message. This seems like far too much increased traffic that is
generated by mailers. A couple of the latest messages contained 30 lines
of headers for ten lines of message - including the .signature !
