Description Jani Uusitalo 2008-09-29 15:58:17 UTC
Please describe the problem:
When I send a link from a browser (tested Epiphany and Firefox), the new mail has no signature despite one being chosen as default for the account. The Signature dropdown shows the correct signature, but it's not in the message body.


Steps to reproduce:
1. Set up a signature and associate it with the default mail account.
2. Load up a web page in Epiphany.
3. From Epiphany's File menu, choose 'Send Link by Email...'


Actual results:
A new email message opens up in the mail editor without the signature.

Expected results:
A new email message to open up in the mail editor, with the signature at the bottom.

Does this happen every time?
Yes.

Other information:
There's an easy workaround: after the message editor has opened, choose 'None' from the Signature dropdown, then choose the wanted signature. It then gets applied to the current message, but you have to repeat this for each new message.

The symptom in bug 323142 seems identical to this, so this may be a duplicate, but I'm filing this anyway because #323142 is about mailto: URIs and this is not.

This _is_ a dupe because the composer is opened by way of a mailto: URI.
