You could just use a bash script (make sure it's executable) like the
following:

#!/bin/bash
echo "<br>"
echo "-- <br>"
echo "Cheers,<br>"
echo "Trey<br>"
echo "---<br>"
echo "<br>"
fortune -s

Evolution requires html tags for formatting (such as the <br> tags for
spacing above).  Now just go to Tools -> Settings -> Composer Settings
and choose the Sigs tab and Script option and point to your file.

HTH.
