on getting things working
in Pine:
In your home directory you should have a file called '.pinerc'. Check
with 'ls -alg'. This file is the pine configuration. Edit it and search for
the section 'feature list'. To this section add the command
'signature-at-bottom' which will move the signature in replies to the end
of the original (quoted) text.
Zoli <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> also supplied the following information:
Pine handles news exactly as email - so this works for both; on the
other hand, recent versions do not require manually editing .pinerc: the
feature-list (and other) settings can be changed from within its main
menu via Setup-Config - not only this avoids messing up .pinerc, but also
provides a neat context-sensitive help.

MAIL and MAILX:
Thomas Okken <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> gives the following assistance for people
who use mail or mailx but still want a .signature on their email:
The FAQ says that some versions of mail and mailx will automatically append
the .signature file. My experience is only with systems where this does *not*
work, so I thought I'd contribute the solution I found. I have tried and used
this with BSD mail on SunOS 4.1.1 and with mailx on HP-UX 9.01; it should
work with lots of other systems too. Here's what to do:
Make a file called "addsig" and put it in your private bin directory or some
other convenient place. (Convenient = out of the way; it will work
automatically, after all.) My home directory is "/users/tokken", so the file
I create is called "/users/tokken/bin/addsig".
This is what the file should look like:
#!/bin/csh
