Composer automatically prepends -- and a newline to my signature file and I have
now way of turning this functionality off. This is annoying if my signature
contains the text:
Thanks,
John-Mason P Shackelford
--
My address & phone, etc.
Users familiar with other email clients enevitably complain about this when I
switch them on to Netscape/Thunderbird.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Setup a signature file in your account settings.
2. Compose a new message.
3. Notice that that the -- characters appear before the signature.
4. Where did those come from?
5. Check the signature file. Nope not there.
6. Check the preferences. Nope, no option to turn it off.
7. Grrr.
I fully agree with you. Confirming. Also, I think the severity should be
enhancement, not normal.

Your signature delimiter is malformed. The proper form is
<beginning-of-line><dash><dash><space><newline>, i.e. "-- ", which is not
entirely obvious... When the sig contains a godd delimiter, another won't be
added at the top. The option is bug 58406.

That's no TB specific bug. I think we can indeed dupe it to bug 58406.
If the delimiter in the reporter description were a "-- " it could be a dupe to
229044 too.
