Err, because that's how it works. And you aren't putting HTML tags into
the script - you are using a script to output HTML tags to the Evolution
editor.

And if you notice your sig in Evo doesn't have a line break between the
KeyID and "Live" whereas your kmail one does. That's because you didn't
put a <br> after the KeyID. To fix it, the first line just has to read:
echo "-- <br>KeyID 0xE372A7DA98E6705C<br>"

And Evo doesn't. There are reasons for it.

Have you told it to look for new messages in all folders?
