Brierley) Organization: Raytheon Company, Portsmouth RI Lines: 17 In reply to the article talking about the "great way" to override the line limit for the signature file. It wont work at my site! I changed the code in inews to enforce a 320 character limit instead of a 4 line limit. I didn't go completely wild with it however, it still only allows either 6 or 8 lines (I forget which). My reasoning was that I agreed with wanting to keep the signature short but it's character you pay for, not carriage returns. -- David H.
