My understanding, regarding netiquette, is that people get a free hand in what they write in the signature part of emails, This is a tradition.
**WRONG!** *Do Not Pass GO Do Not Collect $200*! You should well remember that one valuable member of this list was thrown out by the Administrator of this list, Henne, because some religious wowser (identity claimed to be known) complained to Henne about the Signature line that Fred was using. Remember that? And do you remember the arguments about this at that time? Now Fred was thrown out because of the *Signature* and not the contents of his posts. However, there was another one, Aaron, who was also banned from all oS mailing lists for using offensive language in the *BODY* of messages - but who still posts here (and elsewhere) under yet another alias name (at the moment, Dirk). So, there is NO tradition, and nobody is allowed a free hand to write whatever they want in the Signature to ANY post in openSUSE mailing lists. Just to refresh your memory and everyone else's if they had forgotten the past, and to tell all new comers, that the reason why Fred was turfed out was because the openSUSE mail lists are PRIVATE lists, hosted by the owner; and if you enter a host's house you play by the house rules she/he decides.
