Having it on by default might be seen as a "back door" to some, but
off by default means people would have to see the benefits of turning
it on before they'd do so. Since signed mails are likely to only be done by people who know what they're doing, and I'll guess are also less
likely to be the type to post nonsense to mailing lists only to add to
clutter, I'd think it would be safe to leave on. And by having the header
there, it would probably alleviate those readers/admins that would wonder,
"How the hell did they post on here when they're not subscribed..."
OTOH, you could argue that any list where a significant population of
non-subscribers would be expected to post signed messages would be
tech-savvy enough to have an admin that could enable the feature. My
initial gut feeling is that it should be disabled by default, but I
am planning on implementing 'list styles' for 2.2 so it should be
easy to set that once and have all your new lists automatically pick
that up (I'm not planning on letting styles change existing lists).
