What do you mean by "sigend" email? I saw another e-mail of him, with
only his name and department underneath, so I guess the posting of your
friend is posted as-is, with a name and a department as 'signature'.
This is not considered a "signature" in my country, how can you ever
prove that this posting really did come from your friend?

I can "sign" this e-mail message exactly the same way as your friend
did, does that make it a message from your friend?

Only PGP/GPG/S-Mime signatures could prove some authenticity and it
depends on your law if this is even considered "legel".
