For the 100th time:

No one cares whether you use PGP or not.
Just put in your headers and refer to it in a legal sig.
Get it out of our faces.


There is absolutely no need to clutter up the body of messages with that
stuff. The utility could just as well have been designed to put it in the
headers. Only the unethical intentions of the program's writer's and users
to advertise it in the mails and on the Usenet are responsible for this
approach being used.

There should be NOTHING in the body of a mail beyond the discussion in progress
except for a maximum of 4 lines immediately below a proper sig delimiter "-- ".

You are being hassled not because you use PGP, but because you just have to
get in everyone's face with it.

So don't whine about the mailing lists....

Rude, unethical, and selfish people always have a hard life.
