Lines: 65 Thanks for the really intelligent help..If I had wanted a smart assed answer I would have asked for one.. I think you showed what you know as it stands.

To: len@netsys.com Subject: Signature files & MH Date: Fri, 09 Sep 88 11:16:41 EDT From: Ed Anselmo I figured out a way to automatically include a signature that works with 'comp' (but haven't gotten it to work with repl or forw). Here's how it goes: My .mh_profile file: ----------------- Path: Mail Draft-folder: +draft lproc: /usr/local/bin/less showproc: /usr/local/lib/mh/mhl moreproc: /usr/local/bin/less prompter-next: /usr/ucb/vi signature: Ed Anselmo comp: -form /usr/ed/.signature ali: -alias MailAliases send: -alias MailAliases whom: -alias MailAliases repl: -fcc +outbox -editor /usr/ucb/vi -nocc all -filter repl.filter bbc: -user ed -rpop ----------------- And the magic -form file: ----------------- To: Subject: Fcc: +outbox --- Ed Anselmo internet: ed%clip.uucp@umix.cc.umich.edu University Hospital uucp : {uunet,ames,rutgers}!umix!clip!ed University of Michigan voice : (313) 936-5570 ----------------- A couple of things: You have to have a draft folder defined. It doesn't work with repl or forw. If you're curious, the repl.filter stuff automatically stuffs the replied to message (with '> ' prepended to each line) into the reply. (posted to comp.mail.mh a few months back) It took some messing around, but I finally have 1) file copies of all my outgoing mail saved in the +outbox folder, and 2) a small, tasteful :-) signature appended automatically to messages.
