The www4mail servers would ignore all lines of your signature as long as
all URLs are at least 10 characters into the line or prefixed with
something example:
URL: http://www.personet.net will not trigger www4mail

For plain e-mail messages 
-------------------------
only the first 5 lines of the message are
processed, thus usually processing of signatures is off by default.

For requests generated from a web browser
-----------------------------------------
All lines that do not contain a URL are ignored.
Lines in the signature that contain a URL should be prefixed by something
that is not a www4mail command.
