 Notes on plain-text format
 ----------------------------------------------------------------
 The leading "Æ" + " --- " ASCII frame is the plain-text
 echo of the left-border accent in the HTML signature.
 Do not remove the frame.
 Do not substitute "AE" for "Æ" — most modern mail clients
 render Unicode correctly, and the glyph carries brand value.
 If a recipient truly cannot render Æ, the visible "?" or
 substituted character is acceptable — but never pre-emptively
 downgrade.
