Just keep using the ascii in email--the more people see it and wonder 
why there's these vomit-looking things at the bottom of these email, the 
more people will figure out what to do with it.  Soon,  everyone will 
read email in a fixed font (or someone will come out with an email 
program that looks for a signature flag, say "--"&CR, then automatically 
switches to a fixed font... programmers amoung us, whaddayasay?)
