Can you use HTML signature in webmail/SquirrelMail?

I tried to paste my HTML signature from Apple Mail into my account settings while logged into my server's webmail/SquirrelMail and it looks like it got converted to plain text immediately.

Is it possible for my webmail users to have HTML signatures?

Thanks!

I installed html_mail and have tried copying and pasting my HTML signature as-is (meaning HTML rendered) from Apple Mail and copying and pasting my signature in HTML code and neither one results in the HTML signature displaying as HTML in the composition window. In the latter case, I just get all the raw HTML code in the compose window.

Has anyone got HTML signatures working in the OS X Server webmail??

Both... if I do a copy/paste of the rendered HTML from the Signature setting in Apple Mail to the Signature option in SquirrelMail, all I get is plain text in the SquirrelMail Signature option and in the composition window.

If I copy the HTML source from TextWrangler into the Signature option in SquirrelMail, I see the HTML source both in the Signature option and in the composition window. (I sent a test email to myself and verified the recipient also sees HTML source, not rendered HTML.)

I guess I'm still trying to figure out if HTML signatures are possible with SquirrelMail, I haven't been able to find a definitive answer in the docs or their mailing list. They seem to have an anti-HTML fascination when it comes to email, which I understood and even agreed to at one time, but it's 2009...
