delighted to be of service. anguished at having a reputation to
live up to. confused as to whether to be proud or paranoid.
alarmed that both start with 'p'.
and just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to
get you. :/
the procmail proposal gives me warm squishies, but be warned --
i'll post blitheringly newbiesh questions now and then, so keep
a sharp eye, and you'll be able to help me out, too, someday.
i'm just lucky in that i'm about a week and a half ahead of you.
not that there's anything wrong with that.

DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #13 from Will Trillich <will@serensoft.com>
:
How can you generate RANDOM EMAIL SIGNATURES? Many email clients
have this feature -- for mutt, simply declare in your ~/.muttrc
file something like
send-hook debian- "set signature='~/.signature-debian |'"
(note the quoted value ends with a 'pipe|' symbol) Then whenever
you send email to any debian-* address, it'll append the output
from your script, instead of appending a static file.
