I got a mail from Scottish Widows recently (an investment company). Their email signature and disclaimer was 68 (sixty-eight) lines long.
This is certainly a record for a real email signature that I've received. Has anyone received a longer one?
I tend to use Zen and the Art of the Internet as a guide, published January 1992.
For a usenet signature (and generally people use the same for both email and usenet), the guide recommends four lines maximum. Also the signature should be preceded by the four characters dash-dash-space-newline thus:
"-- "
(without the quotes)
So at 68 lines, I think Scottish Widows are a tad on the long side. Can anyone beat this?

Whats bizarre with companies is that their is no legal basis (i.e. case law, that I know of) for all that T&C's (terms n conditions).
Its a CYA (cover your a** and JIC (just in case).
