Again I don't really know what your problem is, could you be a bit more verbose? Some common problems are addressed in the Gnus FAQ, available at http://my.gnus.org/faq/html-chunks/FAQ.html -- Did you ever realize how much text fits in eighty columns? If you now consider that a signature usually consists of up to four lines, this gives you enough space to spread a tremendous amount of information with your messages. So seize this opportunity and don't waste your signature with bullshit nobody will read.
