Here are the options I have enabled:
When replying ... start new message above original
Automatically add signature... always
When replying or forwarding place signature... above the quote
When replying remove original signature from messsage... (checked)
It is VERY interesting to note that when I enable HTML responses, the signature above quoted text works as it should. I truly think this is still a bug. Can someone please disable "Compose HTML messages" and let me know if you can get the signature above the quoted text?
I appreciate your efforts. Thanks again.
