Well, at least you had the chance to read them once, I accidentally
deleted the (".*" Inbox) rule in my nnmail-split-methods some weeks ago
and lost all mail which wasn't caught by preceding rules for about six
weeks.

(BTW: WIBNIG did at least warn, when it doesn't find a matching rule
for incoming mails?)

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.
