	Your method shows how to insert text in the draft buffer
rather than being appended when the article is sent. I was hoping to
have the contents of my ~/.signature file inserted into the draft
buffer at the time I'm creating the message rather than have it
appended at the time it' sent. the excerpt from the info page below
shows how to do this but I can't seem to get it to work. Maybe the
syntax I'm using is wrong or something. In other words, I can't seem
to get my ~/.signature included in the original draft by setting
mail-signature to t. Any comments?

     `gnus-signature-file', which is a bit confusing.  If
     `mail-signature' is `t', it will insert `~/.signature'.  If it is a
     string, this string will be inserted.
