Indeed, annoying it doesn't use the already configured settings to determine where the signature should come. Now always at the end (in a reply)
Otherwise a very handy tool !
Rated 3 out of 5 stars
3 stars because the add-on working fine but when reply to a message the signature is placing always at the end of message and not at the end of reply(if it is above the original message).
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.6.11).Rated 4 out of 5 stars
My mistake. Sig Switch IS working but when replying to a message it is placing the signature at the bottom of the reply even if the actual reply text is at the beginning of the message followed by the text of the original message. I see that others have lamented this issue.

Dear Achim,
I have found your Signature Switch Add-on quite useful. It would have been a 5-star review if only the signature would appear immediately below the user's reply independently of where the reply is placed, at the top, spliced in, or at the bottom. That took away one star.
As for the separator, namely, the dashes, before the signature, I delete it anyway and include my own separator. I would suggest deletion. And that much has been said by several other Thunderbird users.
And now for something completely different. I was using Add-on QuickText before for signatures and also for templates whereby you create standard letters as templates which could include their specific signatures. Alas, QuickText became disfunctional on the most recent Thunderbird update and when I checked a day or two ago, it was still disfunctional. So I switched, well you guessed it, to Signature Switch. And before too long I realized the your Add-on can be used to provide templates as well, just like QuickText used to do.
Facilitating the insertion of the user's signature (along with a possible template) at the top, spliced in, or at the bottom of the received message would make your Add-on as useful as QuickText used to be and that would restore my ranking of Signature Switch to 5 very good stars.
It should be fairly simple to do and I urge you to do it. Many of us Thunderbird users will be indebted to you.

Add on is great!
But is there any status on when the signature feature can be placed below the reply and over the quote?
holla

The addon works fine but should support different configurations for different accounts.

I rated this add-on only 2 stars. Although it works perfectly for NEW messages, it doesn't work at all (does nothing) for replies or forwards, which are ~90% of the e-mails I send.

What they said....works, great that you can create many to use.
I too hate the end of entire email insert only (and have spoken to you off review about it).
You know an explanation of how to use and set up the hot keys would be helpful, my guessing has yielded bupkis, cant get those to operate at all.
Its a nice base, but you really need to take it to finish the project.

I really love this add-on and thank you for making it.
However, I would really like it if your add-on honoured Thunderbirds settings for the use of the double-hypen -- signature separator.
I read your FAQ and the wikipedia article, but this is still inconsistent with Thunderbird itself. Also, the requirement of the -- separator as a standard is dying and even the wikipedia article you reference is under dispute on what is the standard for a separator.
This is most evident that even the coders for Mozilla no longer think that the -- is mandatory. In the Advanced Config Editor you can tell thunderbird to suppress the signature seperator and this works fine if you have signature set inside Thunderbirds account configuration. However, your add-on always adds the -- regardless of what setting thunderbird is configured.
Again, it would seem that if Mozilla is OK with signature separator suppression, then your add-on should conform to Thunderbird.
You can see the documented support for suppressing the separator here:
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Signatures_(Thunderbird)#Removing_the_signature_separator
Can you please update this add-on so that it does not override Thunderbirds own settings?
Thank you!!!

I appreciate the comment from Incindre.
Me too, I would like to invest some Euros for this feature.
Like I posted on the previous comment:
I won't promise anything... but I've got some free days ahead and I'll try to spend some time on my add-ons again.
Anyway... thanks for your offer.

Seriously: how much money would we need to throw at you to update this extension to put the signature above the quote but below the reply?
Give me a figure and I'll set up a Kickstarter. This extension would be the best thing since sliced bread with this small addition!
Hi there,
I really appreciate your interest and your offer. :-)
But I don't want to make money out of my add-ons.
I tell you what... I've got a few weeks of vacation coming up. Maybe there will be some time left to work on the add-on.
Stick around. ;)

Thanks for the add-on
but I need to define the signature for every account and I need to have my signature below the quote.
Rated 2 out of 5 stars
Good add-on. But I can not put my signature just under my reply.
Annoying. Simply removed it. I'm not a coder, if I were I would implement it myself.
Thanks anyway.

Very nice plugin. It made me want to dig out the old signatures that I used years ago, because I can now easily pick one.
Fantastic that it can open the signature file in the editor of my choice.
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Absolutely perfect! Not only does this do exactly what I needed it to do, some of the convenience features are even better than what I thought was ideal.
Thanks for the great addition!

Q1:
Why locale language zh-TW is marked?
"<!-- <em:locale>locale/zh-TW/</em:locale> -->"
Q2:
Signature and default is differently. Can be unified format?
Thunderbird 11 Default:
<br><pre class="moz-signature" cols="72">--
signature</pre>
But Signature Switch:
<div class="moz-signature">-- <br>signature</div>
Q3:
How put my signature below my reply (above the quote) ?
Rated 1 out of 5 stars
Another vote for signature above the reply. Not much use to me with the signature right down the bottom.
I realise this makes me belligerent and idiotic. I also realise add-on devs have no obligations to their users. So be it. Still doesn't do what a useful signature add-on should do.
Edit in response to yet another intemperate reply from the developer:
Hi Achim. My name's Peter Hollo. My point in adding this review was twofold. Firstly, to inform you, the developer, that another user needs this feature. Second was for the pure amusement value of seeing your response to another low star rating. You see, it's pretty bizarre - you clearly care about how your add-on is rated. And yet everyone who writes requesting this really important feature of your otherwise nice extension gets a personalized torrent of sarcastic abuse.
I guess I just wanted my own personalized torrent of abuse. Thanks for providing :)
By the way, I've changed my rating to properly reflect your "customer service". Cheers.
First of all... thanks for your comment, Mr. "frogworth" (or whatever your real name may be).
So... what exactly is your point after all?
What's the motivation behind your comment?
You're obviously aware that many usere before you addressed this "issue" or "missing feature".
And you also seem to know that all this already has received my attention.
Do you really think that giving my add-on a low rating will change the situation and encourage me to "improve" things?
Or do you just want to "warn" other users and tell them that it didn't do the job for YOU as an individual?
And as for the first sentence you wrote: "Another vote for signature above the reply."
Complaining about the same things again and again PLUS downgrading someone's work has nothing to do with "voting" as far as I understand.
Regards,
Achim

Great extension. Does just what it says. Let's you choose from multiple signatures on the fly.

Simple and gets the job done. Hopefully this evens out some of the more idiotic reviews from people that don't follow the posting guidelines.
