[comp.mail.elm] Patch #8 - thanks & comments

Thanks a lot to those who sent or offered to send patch #8. I have
installed it now.

One comment on this patch :

Why is the remote signature put when I send a mail to a user on
another machine in the same domain ? Aren't domains typically entities
with small or medium grain, where people tend to know each other quite
well ?

In our case (domain .crin.fr, with ~ 50-70 machines), I would put a
short signature for all mail to any user@XXX.crin.fr.
What about a compromise with 3 levels :

- local machine
- local domain
- all the others

 ?? Any comments ?
