I am using Thunderbird e-mail client and have created my own signature with a graphic of my actual signature above my contact information.

The problem is that when I insert the signature file into an e-mail it inserts two hyphens and a space before the image and text, like this --

I have re-written the signature several times thinking I must have inserted something incorrectly, but no matter what I've tried these two hyphens and space keep appearing.

I have gone onto the Mozilla forum and spent many days now trying to find an answer and no one there has had any useful remedies so far. I was hoping someone here might have a clue for me to investigate further and try to resolve this annoyance. Here is a copy of the code I am using;

I can't begin to solve that one, but there's always 20 ways to skin a cat. . .
How about switching the font color to white for the tricky bits, then switch it back to black? The problem will still be there, but no one will see it.

See if this way helps although the insertions may be a quirk of Thunderbird:
