How about something along the lines of:
-10 pattern Body ^A$
^

Or whatever letter the .sig is
I _think_ this would catch every post that has the single letter at
the beginning of a line followed by the end of the line.
...assuming that when the docs say 'buffer' they mean line, when
grepping through a multi-line text.
Might also be slow.
