does email officially identify carrier-added crap?

  since i normally torture my local (KW)LUG with questions, i figured
i'd entertain TLUG this time.

  is there an official standard that dictates how email
senders/carriers must identify the self-promotional rubbish they add
to messages?  as in, "this message sent from my blackberry" --
annoying nonsense like that.

  do any standards for email or MIME require that such additional
verbiage be clearly identifiable?  thanks.
