Re: [Evolution] Signatures and HTML

[Not Zed <notzed ximian com>]

I think its basically because evolution's editor always processes mail
as html.  Its just easier that way, because you can represent any plain
text in html, but not the other way around.

You just have to wrap progs like fortune with a script that adds a <pre>
block.
