[CMake] Mailing list footer

[Michael Wild]

Hi

I really enjoy this mailing list, it is a very friendly place. But one thing that really annoys me at times is that the boilerplate footer doesn't get removed automagically in replies, leading to ridiculous stuff like this if people are too lazy to edit it out in their replies:

I think a pretty simple procmail filter could handle this easily, it doesn't even have to be perfect (i.e. it doesn't have to detect wrapped lines as the above example contains), but would probably reduce the data volume, scrolling and "visual skipping" drastically.

Thanks for considering this proposal...
