Mail.app "forgets" my signatures

I seem to have a bit of a problem. For some odd reason, each time I add a signature to Mail.app, to one of the accounts or the global list, the next time I go to start Mail.app ALL of them are gone. I have tried the usual remove all the plists for Mail.app, but for some reason I am thinking I missed one somewhere. I have done the following:

cd Library
rm -rf Mail
rm -rf Caches/Mail/
rm -rf Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist

Which basically should reset it back to 0, and it is a no go. Any other hints would be helpful!
 
~/Library/Mail/Signatures is where the signatures are kept, but you've already wiped that out with removing Mail from the Library directory.

you checked your disk capacity and inodes? sounds like its just not able to write the signatures file

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
