For mutt, here's a much simplier way of doing it.

Make an edit to your ~/.muttrc that reads something along these lines.

set signature='cat /home/timh/.signature ; echo "
-----------------------------Uptime -------------------------------" ;
uptime ; echo "
-------------------------------------------------------------------"|'

That's all one line, and that's what gives me the signature that I
have.  That can all of course be changed to your astetic choosing, but
that's the easier way of going about it in mutt.

 | The important thing missing here is the automatic start of the script.
 | The script is nice but I still have to punch 'sig' (or whatever I call
 | the script) into an xterm before I start writing a mail.
 | What I'd like is: whenever I type 'm' or 'r' or any command in my mutt to
 | write a mail or reply to a mail I want this script generate the current
 | signature which mutt puts under my mail body.
 | 
 | One possible solution may be running the script by a cron job every 5
 | minutes during 'mail writing hours'.
