I have found the same problem as you. When I run the script and choose
different signatures, the signature pop-up menu does change size to
reflect the number of characters in the name of the selected signature;
however, the signature chosen is ALWAYS the last signature in my list
of signatures. Very weird.
However, I remembered that I do have a couple of mail bundles
installed: PGP, Mailenhancer, JunkMatcher and SpamCop. After a little
troubleshooting, I've identified the problem for me, and I suspect for
you as well. I would wager to bet that you have mailenhancer installed.
Go under mail preferences and turn off the option to select signature
based on account under the Mailenhancer pane. Close the preference
window and you should be able to get your script to work.
HTH,

This one-line script:

used to set the signature of the frontmost unsent new message to my
basic business signature. (I use random signatures for non-business
mail, so I need the script to set the signature for business-related
messages rather than having to scroll all through my long list of
sigs.) Since installing this week's OS X 10.3.4 update the script no
longer works. The odd thing is that, if I run it and then run:
tell application "Mail" to get content of message signature of
outgoing message 1
I get the expected signature content in the script result pane--but it
doesn't change in the actual message. I've tried mailing a message to
myself to see if it's just a matter of the window updating, but
apparently it's not. If I run:
tell application "Mail" to get name of first to recipient of outgoing
message 1
I get the expected result, so it does seem to be targeting the correct
message.
What's up with that, and how do I get my signature set properly now?
Thanks,
Michael
