It appears that any "setting-oriented" macros (in contrast to macros
that input text) like %Account, %From, and %signcomplete, ...etc.
used in the default new message template are applied, unless they
are specifically overwritten by address-book or folder templates.
Unfortunately, there seems to be no way to overwrite the
%signcomplete macro (is there?).
I'm not sure it's a bug or an intended behavior. I can imagine
circumstances when this behavior would be useful. E.g., when you
have settings that want to be applied universally, otherwise you'll
have to put the macros into individual templates.
IMO, however, this behavior is more annoying than useful, for
1) it's not always easy to tell which macros in the default template
would be appended and which would be ignored, and
2) it's inconsistent, for the same behavior applies to the default
new message template only, not to reply or other default account
templates.
