I suggest you write this as:
set signature="generate_new_signature.pl|"
This will invoke the perl script every time a signature is needed, read
its output, and use that for the signature. Your script can modify
.signature (or whatever other files) you want, but it doesn't really
have to, as only the output will be used in this case by Mutt. This
way, you don't even need a hook.
It *is* possible to do it like you're trying to do it... Something like
send-hook . 'push generate_new_signature.pl\n'
Using "push cmd\n" is the right way to do it here, not
using backtics, those though could be kludged to work as well by having
no output, or something like "push " or whatever...
But, really, I recommend just setting the signature to be a pipe from
your script. :-)

Mikko
