Incorrect, mate: your sig separator is broken (it doesn't havce a trailing
space after it).

In some of the groups I hang out in, that's _easily_ enough to make you
look like an arse. What, you can't even configure a newsreader properly?

(Of course, using OE at all would also get you labelled an arse in the
aforementioned groups, but hacking it to be RFC compliant would gain you a
certain measure of grudging respect...)
