Entourage Signature Placement

I'm trying to get my signature to appear at the top of the quoted text (top of all previous emails I am replying to). It seems to always put the signature at the very bottom, and when the email chain is 10 or more messages long, you dont see it. Any ideas as to how to fix this problem?

See here for the different types of signature placements. The third
signature option ("Place reply text at top of message...") seems to be what
you're after:

That places the reply text above the quoted text (top posts), but places the
signature at the bottom of the message. The question from
(e-mail address removed) was how to place the signature above the quoted
text, at the bottom of the reply text.

It can't be done if you use traditional "On [DATE], "[NAME]" <[ADDRESS]>
wrote:" attribution. With this setting the sig is inserted at the bottom no
matter what.

The signature is inserted above the quoted text only if you use
Microsoft-standard (as opposed to everyone else's standard) attribution
which inserts the "From, To, Date & Subject" headers from the original
message.

IMO it would be better to have a separate option just for signature
placement.

I get around it by not specifying a default signature. Then I insert the
signature where I want it.
