     I've been trying to use my .signature file for a while now, with no luck.  (I had to manually cat it together with this file to get it on this message,    which I composed before using Pnews).  Whenever I post to the net, it says      something like ".signature not added -- must be readable by inews".  I don't    know what it takes to make it readable by inews, but I've done everything from  shrinking it to 4 lines to chmod 777'ing it ( a DANGEROUS thing to do around    here).   What's the solution?
	   Thanks

   (with my luck, the .sig will work this time & I'll have 2 signatures at          the end of this posting and half of unix-land laughing at me)
