can we put signature before copy replying email?

When you respond to an email, first go your message, then the copy of the message you are replying to, and then the signature.

Is there a way to put the signature just after the new message? If not, it would be a cool addition ;)

That sounds like top-posting to me. Not top-posting is actually one of the selling points.

I've not added that feature since I personally don't want it. But I'd accept well-written PRs for it. Probably best implemented as a flag, for now.

@ThomasHabets
lol, I didn't even know that top-posting and bottom-posting were a thing... I've never even considered bottom-posting as a useful solution xD

And what about the possibility to do not include the content of the email we are replying to?

Does cmdg even support signatures? If so, how are they used?

[ThomasHabets]

@3ruce yeah not super intuitive how to do that. You create ~/.signature, and start cmdg once with -update_signature. That uploads the signature to your Google Drive application specific directory (this way cmdg can store state in your Google Drive without being able to list, read, or write any "real" files).

After doing that once it's in the cloud, so will be retrieved automatically in the future.

This is so that you can run cmdg on multiple machines, and not need the signature configured on each one.

Thank you... this did the trick!
