Subject: Mailling-list footer
Hello list,
I wonder if we could improve the mailing list footer for scap-security-guide
It can be configured in mailing list administration in section “Non-digest options”.
Currently the footer looks like:
"_______________________________________________
scap-security-guide mailing list
scap-security-guide@lists.fedorahosted.org<mailto:scap-security-guide@lists.fedorahosted.org>
https://lists.fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/scap-security-guide”<h...
What about something more useful?
“--
scap-security-guide@lists.fedorahosted.org<mailto:scap-security-guide@lists.fedorahosted.org>
mailing list
https://lists.fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/scap-security-guide
https://github.com/OpenSCAP/scap-security-guide/wiki/Collateral-and-Refer...
The most important change is replacing
“_______________________________________________”
with
“-- "
“-- “ is usually interpreted by e-mail clients as “beginning of signature” and
automatically stripped from replies. Take note that it is dash dash space.
It would help prevent mailing list signatures from accumulating in replies like this:
[blah blah]
Good idea

Other links in proposed signature were picked from a recent mailing list topic.
Thanks,

PS: This is transcribed almost verbatim from another mailing list I am on where I thought
it sounded like a good idea.
testing of new footer

my email client doesn't recognize the '--' as a signature, even though
it's the same characters as thunderbird uses (ref mine below). others seeing this as
well?

Make sure it is dash dash space, not just dash dash.

and now with a dash dash space
ok, so that works -- but we've now introduced some weird bar

That is a weird bar. Also, apparently Mac Mail.app is not one of those email clients that
supports this :(
