Editing Signature block (section)

==FidoNet==
With [[FidoNet]], echomail and netmail software would often add an origin line at the end of a message.  This would indicate the FidoNet address and name of the originating system (not the user).  The user posting the message would generally not have any control over the origin line.  However, single-line [[tagline]]s, added under user control, would often contain a humorous or witty saying.  Multi-line user signature blocks were rare.

However, a tearline standard for FidoNet was included in FTS-0004<ref>{{cite web| url = http://www.ftsc.org/docs/fts-0004.001| title = "FidoNet EchoMail Specification"}}</ref> and clarified in FSC-0068<ref>{{cite web| url = http://www.ftsc.org/docs/fsc-0068.001| title = "A Proposed Replacement For FTS-0004"}}</ref> as three dashes optionally followed by a space optionally followed by text.
