True.
Although I've received other email from the OP that did not include
the footer, so now I'm curious to know where it came from, especially
since he is using the GMail MX servers.

I don't think it is appropriate for broken MUAs or MTAs to be an
appropriate reason for using in-line signatures and I prefer PGP/MIME
because I think it's better (for the reasons many people have
previously mentioned on this list). I don't, however, agree with the
constant repetition of statements to the effect that in-line is
deprecated.
For a die-hard "in-line is better" stance you'll have to look to
someone else (yes, MFPA, I'm looking at you). ;)

Ben
