Backwards Email Reply?

I just updated to entourage and love it except for one problem.
Whenver i reply to an email, the program places my cursor and my
signature below the message i am replying to. This seems backwards
from every other email program I've ever used. Is there a way to get
my replies and signatures above the message I am replying to without
copying and pasting my signature, and moving my cursor?

Entourage > Preferences > Reply & Forward

Click on "Place insertion point before quoted text"

Only, this won't prevent the signature being inserted *after* the quoted
message. You cannot change that, except with an AppleScript, I think.

Go to Entourage > Mail & News Preferences. Click the "Reply & Forward" tab.
Select the option to "Use short header-style attribution lines", and click
OK.

Sure. Go to Mail and News Preferences, (in the Entourage drop down menu),
click on "Reply and Forward" and check the box next to "Place insertion
point before quoted text".

Enjoy!

But that will leave the signature below the original message, I believe. To
have it above the original message, one must check the second option, as
described in my previous post.

Sig placement in replies is very poorly implemented in Entourage.
