"cut"s the file? I don't know what you are trying to do, but just a
small pointer here. The email message is rendered using gtkhtml, so
try to generate HTML output from your script. In this way, even if you
are using the same script to dump the signature to a plain text email,
gtkhtml would convert the HTML to plain text and render it correctly.

I don't have sample script handy right now, but will share with you a
small script that I used to generate random sigs - using "fortune" and
similar programs - after getting back home.

Hope this helps.
