Sup does detect "-- " (note the space) as the beginning of a "standard"
signature block. It also detects several other variants seen in
practice. Email being what it is, this detection code is necessarily
heuristic and will sometimes generate both false positives and false
negatives.

Provide a patch, or at the least, file a bug report with the specific
behavior you are seeing.
