John, Thanks for your feedback.
Yes, I am using the "Signature" tab under "Composer Preferences", and when clicking on the "Add" button I get the "Edit Signature" window. After entering the field "Signature Name" and the signature itself in the edit window, I click on "Save and Close" (or select the associated menu option) and the window closes. However, although the title of the saved signature appears in the "Signature" window, when I select the title nothing appears in the edit window. If I try to click on the "Edit" button when the signature title is selected, I get the "Add Script" window instead. I went to the folder home/pc/.config/evolution/signatures and, sure enough, it was empty. When trying to save the signature following the above method, nothing is added to that folder. The folder permissions are pc:pc so I don't thing this is what is preventing evolution from saving in that folder. Any ideas? Thanks, Paulo On Wed, 2019-01-23 at 13:10 -0500, Dr. John H.
