    Alex,

    just a minor improvement suggestion: the email templates in amember have a signature that starts with "--\r\n". A correct signature is "-- \r\n" (notice the space).

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signature_block
    The formatting of the sig block is prescribed somewhat more firmly: it should be displayed as plain text in a fixed-width font (no HTML, images, or other rich text), and must be delimited from the body of the message by a single line consisting of exactly two hyphens, followed by a space, followed by the end of line (i.e., "-- \r\n").[1] This latter prescription, which goes by many names, including "sig dashes", "signature cut line", and "sig-marker", allows software to automatically mark or remove the sig block as the receiver desires. The signature prefix chosen can be different for different people serving as a distinguishing feature of their signatures. A correct delimiter is required for a news posting program to receive the Good Netkeeping Seal of Approval.

    Regards,
    -m.
