Signatures and rules are kept in the same file. But yes, rules could cause
an import problem. Any rule with more than (I think) ten criteria can cause
difficulty. You have to break them apart into two rules.
I have heard of no problems associated with signatures, other than the fact
that every now and then, if you compose a message and then change the
signature, the new sig replaces the entire message with no possibility of
undo. THAT I hope will be fixed in a future release! (Always save your
message before changing sigs. If the message gets wiped out, close the
window and do not save...the message should still be in your drafts or out
box folder.)

Very true.
