Bug Description

version: 2.11.91-0ubuntu1

evolution prompted me that I might have forgotten an attachment. This is _really_ nice, however it doesn't ignore my signature which has a company-wide disclaimer about "scanning attachments for viruses" which always trigger the alert so unfortunately I've had to disable this useful feature :-(

"so, what to do? proposals? where's the complaint? :-)
you can remove the word "attachment" from the list of keywords under edit ->
plugins -> attachment reminder"

Apologies for not replying earlier - I thought I had.

As suggested in the original report - don't scan the signature for the keywords - just the body of the email.
