Here are some rules for creating a signature.
Do not put your phone number into your signature of your News posts; if somebody wants to reach you then he should first do so via email. after all that is why newsreader have a "reply" command.
You can put your phone number into your message header, too. The header line which stores you phone or fax number should start with "X-" to mark an "extra line" and contain the word "phone" or "fone" or "fax":
X-Fon: +49 30 8838884 X-Fax: +49 30 88629362
When your number is in the header then searching for phone/fax numbers is a *lot* faster when you can be sure to find it in the header as there is less data to search. Good clients allow you to view the full header and also to configure hich header lines to show. So if you want to see phone numbers then configure your client to show these header lines. If your client does not allow you to do this, well, tough luck. switch to a better client!
