"-- " (dash-dash-space) does, though. Most modern email clients will automatically remove that sig delimiter and everything below it when replying (which can give problems when top-posting with the sig also inserted above the old message, creating another incentive not to top-post), and often also display the sig differently (or not) when viewing the message. (Mozilla mail for example shows sigs in a light-gray color so you have a nice indicator of where you can stop reading.) *grins* If we're going for picky usenet behaviour, we gotto do it right... :) -- May you always find shade and water, Sander
