Though often it is redundant, since simply hitting REPLY will send mail to

You would only want to use the mailto: option if :
- Your message might end up as part of a digest (as here)
OR
- You want people to write to a different address than the one you used to
send the current message.
Re: sig file - anyone know if AOL has some similar function?
