All of them contain that footer. The footer is appended as an extra MIME
part in the message.

You just have to have a good email client to see it.

Also, I'm trying to convince our list admins to force dropping of HTML
parts. 
Text/plain should be enough. And messages with HTML only would be
rejected.
----------------
I've never gotten this fascination with plain text only....

Seriously, besides the "wasted bandwidth" whats the big deal? Is there a
mail reader out there that doesn't support it? Including creating new
messages that embed responses correctly and generate new HTML fine?

We waste more bandwidth answering non-QT C++ questions then the HTML
overhead :)

That said.. please note, its quite clear, there are a number of people
here with FORCED signatures.. Probably setup by some IT control freak,
who thinks that even email sent to a public list needs a confidentiality
agreement :)  

Those are most likely going to be html (just based on the smaller fonts
used in the sigs) AND the user would have no control over it.
