Hi,

I just want to say that the signature problem I mentioned in November
seems to be totally resolved with the new Evolution 1.2.1 upgrade.

I've noticed the change because, curiously, most of my previous
signatures "disappeared" after the upgrade! In the Tools> Parameters,
all the signatures were there (and the files were intact in
~/evolution/signatures), but nothing showed up in the preview pane or in
the compose window.

I opened the ~/evolution/signatures files in a text editor. Copy-pasted
the content in the signature editor. And everything is fine now.

Many thanks!
