I don't think I agree that "Internet mail" is just mailing lists - most, if not all, the mail I send and receive is "Internet mail" - not everyone works in a corporate environment you know! There's things like personal mail, academic communities, developer/FOSS communities and so on. BTW - much as I hate to point out a way around inserting the delimiter, you can do it using a script signature. Just remember that the script needs to output HTML even if you use plain text email - and please, start the script with "-- <br>".
