Detect signatures with long lines

[obukhov-sergey]

Generally signatures have short lines - no more than 60 characters but there is also a class of signatures that have long lines with long URLs, etc.

Example:

Some text

Currently talon doesn't parse signatures like this

Seconded!

Would this also apply to HTML based signatures (which are basically always longer than 60 characters)?

[mgwidmann]

As an example, http://htmlsig.com puts the following disclaimer at the bottom of their email (which is common among businesses)

@obukhov-sergey What is currently limiting talon from parsing longer signatures?

[LeonAlvarez]

Any plan or workaround for this?

PD: Im have some success removing lines over 60 chars from the email. But it sometimes adds lines before the real signature (Ex if email contains a name list)
