        Don't Overdo Signatures.

Signatures are nice, and many people can have a signature added to
their postings automatically by placing it in a file called
"$HOME/.signature".

Don't overdo it. Signatures can tell the world something about you,
but keep them short. A signature that is longer than the message
itself is considered to be in bad taste. The main purpose of a
signature is to help people locate you, not to tell your life story.
Every signature should include at least your return address relative
to a major, known site on the network and a proper domain-format
address. Your system administrator can give this to you.

Some news posters attempt to enforce a 4 line limit on signature
files -- an amount that should be more than sufficient to provide a
return address and attribution.
