Unwanted attachment

[Steve Crocker]

Michael,

A different way to look at your problem is that your client software  
could be serving you better.  As Patrik and Vint have pointed out,  
the signature is within the protocol specs.  The software on your end  
could be smarter and know what to do with signatures when they  
arrive.  Complain to your vendor, find another mail client or write  
better software.
