Does my signature on this message make you trust
it more than, say, the ten ads you got this morning
for Viagra?
Yes.
Why or why not?
It proves who you are, which means that you expose yourself to a certain
extent in the event that you do anything inappropriate with your e-mail.
This implies that your intentions are honorable; and even if they are not,
the signature makes you easier to track down and take action against. So it
makes one feel a bit warmer and fuzzier.
