The signature script works by adding it when you open the composer (or

when changing the signature).

What happens when you open a new email? Does it work if in the composer

window you choose your script in the Signature dropdown? You may need

to set it as the default signature.

When I open a composer window to create a new email, nothing unusual happens: no messages from evolution, etc.; no signature appears before I start editing.

If in a new composer window I check the only option to control signature (but probably the wrong kind of signature), namely

Options->S/MIME Sign

clicking "Send" fails with the message:

Could not create message.

You may need to select different mail options.

Detailed error: Cannot sign outgoing message: No signing certificate set for this account

I don't see anything in 

evolution->edit->preferences->Composer Preferences->Signature

to control which signature is the default.

The various relevant options in 

evolution->edit->preferences->Composer Preferences->General

don't seem to affect anything, probably because no signatures are ever inserted.
