PS: A format-legibility question. I would like to hear OFFLIST from people for whom there is NOT a box of text (text in a rectangle of asterisks) above my signature. >> Thanks to everyone who has already replied off-list. Everyone I've heard from got something approximately box-shaped, but with a right- hand column of asterisks that was not vertical. (Result of displaying with proportional fonts.) Now I only need to hear (offlist, of course) from anyone who gets something more mangled than that. Thanks again, AMK. .
