Heya,
Anytime I put text in a table it appears bold, why is this and can I prevent that from happening so just appears normally? Thanks.

It's most likely a table header ('th') instead of table data ('td').

Is it so difficult to add a signature delimiter ('-- ') before that?

Blind
One man was a Pharisee, a religious leader
zealous to maintain a sinless posture.  The other woman was in all
likelihood a prostitute.  The Pharisee invited Jesus into his home and
whether by oversight or by intent failed to offer the common amenity of
providing water for his guest to wash his feet.  The woman, taking
advantage of a custom that allowed the poor into a home for scraps, bathed
Jesus’ feet with grief-stricken tears, wiped them with her hair,
kissed them in profound reverence and perfumed them—perhaps with the
very oil she once used to lure men.

Well -- this isn't the reason but you've got two doc types in your page --
you need to get rid of the second one in the body of the page (looks like
this: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> )

The bolding is due to the fact that you've got your MAIN OUTER table set so
that the rest of your page is INSIDE the TH row... Does that make sense? You
have all THs in your main table that holds the rest of the tables... You
need to change those to TDs...

Yes, in fact -- my sigs are randomly generated and I have about 40 of them
pre-built -- when I get time someday I'll go through and add dashes to
them... But this is the first place anyone has complained and frankly, I
don't have the time right now.

What reader do you use that makes it troublesome? I simply highlight the
portion of the email I am replying to, hit reply and I only get that...
Never had a bit of trouble with anyone's sig myself.

OK, accepted.

>What reader do you use that makes it troublesome?

I wouldn't call it troublesome, but a delimiter makes it easier and more
convenient to reply (I use Forté Agent).

Since I usually reply to multiple parts of a mail/posting I simply press
'r' for reply and start typing (and cutting out the parts that I don't
want to reply to). Now the nice thing about a sig delimiter is that it
allows the news reader to automatically remove the sig when answering,
so I don't have to do it by hand.

Actually, where it would go is above the "Community MX Partner" line. I
don't want to be quoting all that 'stuff', and it looks like that portion
of your posts is fixed.
