Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:85.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/85.0

Steps to reproduce:

Click on an account, go to "View settings for account", "Attach the signature from a file instead", put remote URL in there.

Actual results:

Signature on new messages and replies is empty - turns out Thunderbird just deletes the user input from the "Attach the signature [...]" textbox if it doesn't start with "/".

Expected results:

Signature is fetched from the web (possibly cached) and inserted as code in the message, like it's done with a local file, but with a remote URL in there (central signature management for multiple accounts / multiple devices for every account).

Summary: remote account signature → Support adding an account signature from a remote file

Thanks b.pedini, that sounds like a good idea, although we haven't had too much interest in this over the last decades, so it's not a priority...
We would welcome a patch...
