I see this bug as well. However, Script Debugger’s Explorer view of the dictionary does properly show the name of each signature (while the actual name property of each signature fails). There may be a way to use raw (chevron) syntax to work around the bug.

I’ve a script which has been working very well for a long time which now fails under Sierra. The code is

tell application "Mail"
activate
set msg to make new outgoing message with properties {visible:true, sender:"Jeremy Roussak <email@hidden>", subject:(caseName & ", " & caseNumber), content:timeText}
set msg's message signature to signature "kings"
end tell

The offending line is the message signature line. There is definitely a signature “kings”, but Mail doesn’t want to provide access to it.

tell application "Mail"
get signatures
end tell

returns

{signature "default" of application "Mail", signature "kings" of application "Mail”}

but 

tell application "Mail"
set sigs to get signatures
properties of second item of sigs
end tell

gives

error "Mail got an error: Can’t get signature \"kings\"." number -1728 from signature “kings"


Any ideas gratefully received!
