Ugh, sorry about that. The <C-L> was meant to be Ctrl-L which clears
the screen after vim complains if it cannot find quoted signature.
Apparently the <...> construct doesn't work in this case (any vimmers
here willing to explain?), try inserting a literal CR (press Ctrl-V
followed by Enter) and a literal Ctrl-L (press Ctrl-V followed by
Ctrl-L).
The above method assumes that you use $signature and $sig_dashes so
that there's a blank line after the quoted mail and your own
signature. I should have mentioned this earlier.
