Perhaps line 3 of this script (I have Mail v.2.1.3).  Impossible here 
to give content to a signature -- as if I needed any further reasons 
never to use Mail.


         tell application "Mail"
           delete (every signature whose name is "Temp")
           set choose signature when composing to true
           set _sig to make signature at beginning with properties 
{name:"Temp", content:"bye!"}
           properties of _sig
           --=> {class:signature, content:missing value, name:"Temp"}
           set properties of _sig to {content:"bye!"}
           properties of _sig
           --=> {class:signature, content:missing value, name:"Temp"}
           try
             set content of _sig to "bye!"
           on error e
             return e
           end try
           --=> "NSInternalScriptError"
           try
             return content of _sig
           on error e
             return e
           end try
           --=> "NSInternalScriptError"
end tell
