RE: Winmail.dat, anyone else getting this at the end of mail...

Here's how your message comes up in Pegasus Mail. Note the first and
last lines:

It seems to me that an autosig which is in anything other than straight
text isn't terribly useful. I've now received several of your "attachments,"
and I still don't know what your autosig contains.

Pegasus Mail allows you to set up multiple profiles (for instance, one for
business A, one for business B, one for personal mail, etc.), each of
which can have up to nine signatures, any of which can be set as the
default or selected on the fly. What does Outlook do (other than annoy
recipients with its default HTML mode) that Pegasus Mail doesn't?
