This is an undocumented Microsoft "feature" which occurs because (as the help
facility will tell you) you can only use one signature in an email. It
generally happens if you have default signatures set up. If you create a new
email or reply to an email, your default or response signature is inserted
automatically. If you then delete that, type in some text and insert a
different signature, Outlook has not registered that you have deleted a
signature, so it takes your text as being a signature - and replaces it with
the new one! Clever, eh?
