The content of this email is confidential and intended for the addressee only. If it was sent to you in error, please notify the sender immediately and delete the email.
I would like to go through the text and remove the signature, but the code should be flexible for any text of this nature. As soon as there's "King Regards or Vriendelike groete" it should see that that's a signature, maybe preceded by '\n'. I don't know if there's Library out there or Regex, I've been trying to playing around with it but succeeding.

What have you tried so far?
RE: Remove Email Signature - NewBeie - Apr-29-2019
Hi,
Thank you for the response, I actually have a pattern already,
pattern = re.compile(r'[Kk]ind [Rr]egards|[Vv]riendelike [Gg]roete/|[Vv]riendelike [Gg]roete|[Bb]est [Rr]egards| [Bb]est [Rr]egards| [Yy]ours [Ss]incerely| \n [Rr]egards')But it only takes out the first part of the signature
My question was more on the entire Signature, one of them include their names and numbers after 'Kind Regards':

Is there a way or methods somewhere that maybe we can even edit, that tries to identify the signature?

Can't vouch for it, but found this package: https://github.com/mailgun/talon
RE: Remove Email Signature - PythonPaul2016 - Jan-01-2020
Mailgun's Talon library is okay. It's not super accurate.
SigParser's email parsing library is better in that it can handle multiple languages.
