Hi,
I'm quoting the original mail first:

Couple notes:
a) do not add the "<div>-- </div>", because 1) it's a wrong signature
delimiter; b) the signature delimiter is added by Evolution itself
(unless you've turned it off). Using a wrong signature delimiter causes
confusion why it's not removed on reply;
b) do not use <p></p>, use <div></div> instead; the composer
understands <p>, but uses <div> internally;
c) your email address does not end with '>'; as you pretend HTML, it
should be:
"<div>Sincerely Jonathan Ryshpan <jonr...@pacbell.net></div>"
but if you want to make the address clickable, then the right form is:
"<div>Sincerely Jonathan Ryshpan <<a
href="mailto:jonr...@pacbell.net";>jonr...@pacbell.net</a>></div>"

If you see in the signature preview HTML tags, then the code thinks
it's a Plain Text signature, not HTML signature. That needs changing.
Try to enclose the whole content into <html><body> ... </body></html>.
The MIME type is guessed from the file content, unless you set it on
the signature object beforehand. The script signature doesn't let to
set it.

When you look at the top of the composer window there's a From: line,
beside which is a Signature: combo. That's the place where you can
change the signature before sending/when composing the message.
