2 NeXTMail questions

1) Is there an easy way to make NeXTMail include my .signature
file in all mail messages?

2) Does a uudecode service exist?  We use a mixed network in which
the PC users use Pegasus Mail.  When they include a document in their  
message it is uuencoded and included with the rest of the text.  I
can copy the uuencoded portion to a text file, save it, uudecode it, and  
then load the document.... but this is painfully repetitious.  I 
think that I can write a service which will perform the same function,
but I don't want to reinvent any wheels.

thanks in advance.

I use the following services from Terminal:

uudecode: cd /tmp; sed 's/^begin [0-9][0-9]*.*/begin 600 ud'$$/|uudecode; cat ud$$; rm ud$$
uuencode: uuencode ue$$

Both services accept plain text, use selection as input, return output, use
the default shell and run in the background.  --Tiggr
