Gmail labs have come out with a interesting new feature, you can now directly get your Gmail signatures before the quoted text in a reply.
Earlier when we use to click on ‘Reply’ , our Gmail signatures used to get appended on the end of mail and not where you expected.
Follow this path to set it up:
- Go To Gmail > Settings(on top right)
- Click on ‘Labs’.
- Scroll down to Enable ‘signature tweaks’
- Done! To test, just reply to any message …you will now find that the your signature has been appended before the quoted text.

You may want to check out the following add-on for Firefox that lets you easily manage multiple rich HTML signatures for each address you have set up in Gmail:

Wow, thanks for posting this. I was going crazy before realizing this could be fixed so easily.
FYI, the Google Calendar gadget (also within Gmail Labs) is useful. I’d recommend also enabling the Navbar Drag and Drop within Labs to position the Calendar at the upper left side of your screen.

That is exactly what I was looking for since I am using gmail!
Why is this not the default? It seems like it should be this way for most users. Thanks for the tip.
Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!
I don’t get the sense of having the signature at the very end to envelope the message @_@
