Whoops, sorry for the message with no comments.

I changed this to presend and it works great.  It even works great with
tagline facilities, like Bandit tagger, etc. because it deletes the
original message and then you edit the message again and resend it.  So,
it doesn't end up with two signatures appended.  Neat script.  Leave it
to Rolf again.
