Subject: Signature? Where?
Am I being totally blind, or is there no option to use a signature in
Google Groups? I have looked everywhere (except where it is located,
obviously!) in all kinds of settings I could find. No "sig" textarea
anywhere that I can find.

Please tell me.

i think you mean message footer. in your group, click manage, then
posting and delivery. voila!

if you are not a group manager or owner then you can't change the
group's message footer.

if you are asking about a sig like what you get in gmail, then you
don't have one from the google groups interface.

Obviously, that is what I want.

Signatures are rather important in Usenet, and I would obviously like
to use one from here. If Google Groups doesn't support this, I don't
know what to say (other than it's a very crappy newsgroups client).

No need to be snide and put down someone who tried to help you. While
some may have understood your question as you intended, Sol's
interpretation was reasonable, especially given that he's active in
other groups in the GG Guide, like "Managing Your Group." I fail to see
what you gain by being rude.

Btw, you're under no compulsion to use GG's web interface. All you need
is your favorite news client and an NNTP server.

PS. If you have nothing to say, people will think better of you if you
just hold your peace instead of saying it anyway.

I wasn't being rude... Or was I? Do I need to constantly use smileys in
order to not be misunderstood? :S

Yeah, well... I WOULD use Opera's M2 if it weren't for the fact that my
ISP doesn't cary any news server anymore. I'd rather not pay extra to
use Internet properly.

Okay... but I did have something to say. I for one would consider it
rude to not reply.

Yeah I don't think that I got this either.  I went to the "manage" link
but didn't see an option for posting and delivery.....
