This does suck. I logged a bug against Evo 0.9 as the file selector for sigs did not allow dotfiles to be selected. Now they don't allow any file to be selected! However, if script signatures are allowed. how about: "cat $HOME/.signature"? Ahh - just tried this - looks like you cannot set a script sig to be the default, and it does not honour carriage returns - presumably because it is interpreting the sig as HTML. cat $HOME/.signature | sed -e 's/$/\<br\>/' is getting there.... > > On the other hand, I have slightly higher priorities than the program > not allowing me to use my preferred signature file - like when (if) the > program will ever get around to allowing for setting specific user IDs > in association with specific addresses, as someone else mentioned. -- Ben Stringer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
