Signature is not header, though such information could be placed in
signature. Though people who receive email for first time or receive
email from multiple staff members from same organization may be less
confused when the first, in the header, see some basic information
about WHO IS THIS? WHERE IS THAT PERSON FROM? WHAT IS IT ABOUT? Though
people should be reading from email headers, but reality is that this
is less today than before.

Well, I don't get annoyed, it is similar to signature right? Who
cares? Don't read it if you know what is it.
