hi,
i've seen in many linuxers' mails (specially PHILIP TELLIS) that the signature changes with every email. how do you manage to do that??? i use evolution & netscape 6.1 (yeah...both of them crash a lot :)) in which you have to specify which signature file to use. my first guess is that to write a small "c" program which will overwrite say, "signature.txt" every min. with the help of cron. this program will take input from a small database of signatures. any hints/ideas?. thanks you.

Get a real email client... like pine or mutt. They allow you to specify a program pipe as your signature file. Your program would call the fortune cookie program.

hey... but pine not GPLed :)

The use mutt. Still, not GPLed isn't entirely bad. The pine licence allows redistribution. You can charge for it if you are non-profit.
