My signature is 4 lines long and starts with a valid signature marker
("-- ").  I don't like long signatures that stretch into hundreds of
lines ("Best regards", name, address telephone, fax, mobile, cat's name
etc.) but I see nothing wrong with a 4-line signature.

You may want to check with RFC1855 (Netiquette Guidelines), which
says "If you include a signature keep it short.  Rule of thumb is no
longer than 4 lines."  In fact, you should read it anyway, because
you clearly don't know (or care) how to quote in context.
