Subject: Signature delimiter recognised does not follow expected convention
The mail/news signature delimiter recognised is "--\n" I'm not sure there is a real standard on this but according to http://www.xs4all.nl/~js/gnksa/gnksa.txt ftp://ftp.demon.co.uk/pub/news/doc/so1036.txt the recommended signature delimiter is "-- \n"
