[TriLUG] Email: HTML, replies, signatures, and signing

Hi,

I've been playing around with email configuration and wondered if others
would mind sharing opinions.

HTML?  I've never written HTML email till now mostly as a result of
using Pine in college.  It seems like pretty much everyone can accept it
and I find that when I reply and leave quoted text in my reply it's
pretty damned ugly.

Replies?  Reply above the quote or below?  I've tried not to top-post,
but it's annoying to others to reply below the quote, I suspect.


Signatures? Email signature below the quote when replying or above?  I
have been replying above the quote and placing the signature below, but
that seems difficult for some to figure out.

Signing?  I've been signing in-line and probably annoying people with
the SHA-1 hash crap at the start of my email.  Almost no one knows what
it means.  Yesterday I started signing with PGP/Mime, which is perhaps a
little less obnoxious.  Any thoughts on signing and in-line versus PGP/Mime?

Thanks,
Jim
