The mailing list adds its own signature to every post. Could it be the mailing list software which strips out the space. For example, this reply stripped out the mailing list 'unsubscribe' instructions, but they'll be back at the bottom of this message by the time you read it. And I'll bet Patrick used <dash dash space>, but it's only <dash dash> by the time I get to reply to his message (see above).
I don't think so, as I have not observed that in the past. What you are probably seeing on your end is kmail's editor stripping end-of-line spaces and/or only recognizing the *last* 2-dash+space sig indicator. To test, you would need to open the message with an editor you *knew* did not strip end-of-line white space, before kmail reads it, ie: pico, nano, joe, jed ... I have observed tofu with included quoted signatures that did include the space after the double dash. And the quoted signature block from me as you present does *not* include the trailing space -- Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://counter.li.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
