Version: 1.9.7 (using 3.5.7, Gentoo) Compiler: Target: i686-pc-linux-gnu OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.23-gentoo-r6 I've the signature (see below) for which KMail produces 2 "-" section to the left of the legs of the cow if I send an email using this signature : IMAP ^__^ (oo)\_______ (__)\ )\/\ ||----w | || ||
This is because the | character indicates a quote, just like the > character. KMail probably should not show expand/collapse quote marks in signatures. But then, detecting this is difficult, since a signature separator (--) can also occur in normal text. You can disable quote marks in the settings under Appearance->Message Window.
