Nay, that would have been Mr. Rumble's recent mail. I would never save my
signatures to /tmp -> ANYONE could see them! ;)

UTS routing loop. Good show. Anyway, here's how to do it:
send-hook . "set signature = 'fortune |'"
Send hooks are really useful, and you should read more about these (and
folder hooks) in the Mutt manual. "." matches everything, and the piped
fortune brings in the text.
I actually use some hacky Python to do the centering and stuff, which...
ah... needs some work.
