With the latest release there are two new notice actions, NOTICE_EMAIL and
NOTICE_PAGE, which you can use for this.

Can you provide an example that demonstrates it's not working?

Oops, it got left out inadvertently, as did rsh.bro. I'll send them
along in the next two messages so folks can play with them prior to
the next release.

I see that you've since figured this out. A significant change with
the 0.9a8 release was that signatures are now turned off by default.
