How would I change sig files for particular messages, given the
one-sig-per-account limitation?


In 2.0 (and I expect in 2.1 also), you can define separate identities
for each
account, and each identity can have its own sig. You need to go in
Edit ->
Account Settings, then click on your account's name. You should then
see a
Manage identities button. Click on it, and there you can add
identities (for
example, one for business, one for personal, one for nonprofit).

Once you're done with that, you can select the proper identity when
you compose
an email by clicking on the Sender bar at the top of your email
writing window,
which will allow you to choose which identity to use. Once you select
it, you'll
see its signature appear. If you change identity at this point, the
sig will
also change.


Thanks for the tip, I had never noticed "manage identities" before!

That is all true if you have different mail accounts.

As I understood the original question was for a single mail account with
the ability to use different signatures depending on where the message
was going to be sent, not which account was going to be used.

That is a capability of Signature Switch.  First, setup signatures.
Then edit each signature to be the default for a specific E-mail address
or newsgroup, without regard for accounts.  No, you don't have to make a
particular signature the default for any address or newsgroup.  Also,
you get a Signature button on the TBird compose window, through which
you can select any other signature for the current message and override
the default.

I just hope this works for TBird 5.  I'm about to update having just
done a complete backup of my PC.

Good luck.  I wish you well.
