And for that it's nice to have something canned and ready...  :)

Which also is why it's nice to have both options, a sig file and a tag
file, since they are useful for different things.  As I was telling
Jean, it's another reason to appreciate Bluewave's versatility.  I have
a couple of taglines that I wrote to be essentially one-liner sigs.  One
was my snail address which I used in the genealogy echoes when I was
posting a query, to make it possible for someone only lurking to send me
info, which happened quite often, actually.  Another is a "coming to you
from" one which I've used sometimes since the age of telnet where the
Origin line of the bbs usually has little relation to where the poster
is actually located...

Yup.  Different options for different situations.  :)
