Hmmmm.  That doesn't happen for me.  As you can see I've chosen HTML format for this message, and the \n--- \n separator is still there.  After switching to HTML, I tried changing my "From" personality to several I have which use different sigs (including 'auto-generated'), and the separator is there for every one.

Maybe if you attach the signature as a file, someone might be able to figure out what's happening (and if you really care that much).  It could be something simple.  The sig files are stored in ~/evolution/signatures

To tell the truth, I think the answer has been discussed in this list before.  Maybe it is the presence of HTML tags in your signature.  I don't have such tags in any of my sig files.  And if I recall correctly, the situation was discussed as being intentional by Evolution developers, though I never understood why.

I dunno.  The Ximian developers have been very quiet around here lately.  It's certainly not that big of a deal, if you ask me.
