custom signature and from

custom signature and from

[Uri Guttman]

i am looking for a simple way to customize my from header and signature
based on to whom i am sending mail. i have found some libs that do way
more than i want (random sig quotes) but nothing that just looks at the
to/cc headers and selects from a set of files. are there any libs that
do this or similar? i am using v5.10.6 under emacs 21.4.1.

i know about the message-signature variable but i am sure there are
existing libs that i can use for this.

thanx,

uri

when i searched for message-signature in info on gnus, that page didn't
show up. but that is just what i wanted.

a followup question is whether you can choose your from/sig on the fly
via a command (i can code it up and bind it fine). i sometimes will want
to decide on an identity as i write it. gnus-posting-styles will be fine
if i write to someone which matches something but if i write a to a new
address which doesn't match, how would i change it on the fly (and not
use the default)?  of course i could add this domain to my
gnus-posting-styles before i write the email. this is just something you
see on the mostly crappy gui emailers, a menu of which identity to
choose.
