The magic to getting things like this to format correctly is to remove |
| 39 |
the line that is exactly "-- " (dash-dash-space) and everything |
| 40 |
following it -- or to ensure that that line is quoted somehow. Most |
| 41 |
text email clients treat that string as a signature indicator, and |
| 42 |
assume that everything following it isn't very important, just boilerplate. |
