[How To] Mail 2.0 - Get all accounts to appear in the Signatures section

Found the fix for people who face the problem of their Mail accounts not showing up in the Sigantures section of Mail 2.0...

To get your accounts to appear in the signature section do the following:
1. Go to your Mail Preferences
2. Click the 'Accounts' tab
3. Select the account you wish to show up in you signature list
4. Click the 'Advanced' tab within that Account Info
5. Check the 'Include when automatically checking for new mail' box. If this box is already checked, then uncheck it. Move to another account so it gives you the option to save the change. Save the change, then go back and re-enable it.
6. Done

Your account should now appear in you Signatures section

Another weirdness...

I have a bunch of different signatures (28 I beleive), that I want to use randomly. I also have three IMAP accounts, and I want to use all signatures in my mail, regardless of the account I'm sending them from.

This turned out to be easy, but very unintuitive. First I created all signatures with "All signatures" selected. When I subsequently clicked on an account, none of the signatures where available. I had to manually select them all in "All signatures" and drag them to each of the account names. That made them available for all accounts, and I could choose to let Mail pick one at random for each new mail.
