After checking a little further, Mike may be right about needing
Panther. This option appeared first in V1.3.3 of Apple's Mail, which I
think was the version that shipped with Panther (it is currently
v1.3.8).
It may be worth it to upgrade (Tiger is not expected to ship for quite
some time) not only for Mail but there are quite a few other goodies in
Panther that are not in Jaguar.
Which other email clients have you tried?

Someday, I will come up with a clever signature line. I am not sure if
I will use it or not, but I will come up with one.
