Make two changes to zwrite:
1. When sending a signature, the "From: " should be a separate
field, i.e. put a null after it.
2. When not sending a signature, you should include two nulls before
the signature to show that there *are* fields for the "From: "
and the signature there, but they're blank.
The problem with this is that existing description files will do the
wrong thing, and you end up with
From:
Foobar Q User
alfj;l
al;fj;la
when you really want the 'From:' and the 'Foobar Q User' on the same
line.
