    This question is asked frequently on the postfix-users list. The answer is that
    you can't do it reliably. If the message is plain text you are fine but once you
    introduce MIME you have problems. You can't just tack the signature on the
    bottom because it breaks all the mime encoding. You have to basically
    disassembl;e the message and reassemble it with a new mime section, the
    signature. This can conveniently be done using a content filter.
