No, if you've got only one identity, you should not need this.
Ever tried the customize things (M-x customize-group ...)?
btw.: what is "*.*" supposed to be? This is not a shell, in lisp ".*"
means match everything.
Try setting user-mail-address and user-full-name. I'm not sure about the
signature though. Maybe you do need the gnus-posting-styles for that.
