Subject: 24.4.50; Emacs manual: mail signature variables and command
Date: Mon, 21 Apr 2014 19:24:41 +0200

Section "32.5 Mail Signature" in the current Emacs manual is
confusing. It describes the variables ‘mail-signature’ and
‘mail-signature-file’, while the presented command,
‘message-insert-signature’, actually uses the variables
‘message-signature’ and ‘message-signature-file’ instead.

‘message-insert-signature’ is also the command that is run when ‘C-c
C-w’ is typed in the mail buffer.

Fixed for Emacs 24.4 (revision 117022 on the emacs-24 branch).
