I'm not Alain either, but this is what I do:
In ~/.muttrc
set signature="signify|"
And the configuration for signify:
rei $ cat ~/.signify
% ( left, minwidth, repeat
% | left, minwidth
Marc Wilson
msw@xxxxxxx
% | left, minwidth, repeat
|
% | left, minwidth, exec
fortune -s -n 165 | sed "/^$/d;s/ */ /;s/ */ /" | fmt -55 -u
% )
The hackery with sed is to remove extraneous newlines in fortune(6)'s
output and attempt to ensure it fits in three lines.
