Sig-assassin

With apologies to taint.org. I picked up the following from the Irishblogs aggregator. I've often thought there was a requirement for a sig removal tool which scours emails for phrases like "[Dd]isclaimer", "[Tt]he information contained","[Uu]nauthori[sz]ed use", etc. and strips the offending lines and surrounding paragraphs from the emails while updating spamhaus with the offending address. A spot of tarpitting might also be a necessary component of such a solution. Ok, I'm kidding & would never condone such an action but many sigs such as these are essentially spam anyway. Just because I'm engaged in communication with an employee of a large Scottish financial institution doesn't mean that I wish to participate in an email marketing campaign for their services.
