Hmm... it looks like $text_flowed was somehow turned off.  I hope this
wasn't due to my suggestion. :-/

Setting $resume_draft_files treats the -H filename just like resuming a
postponed draft.  This means send-hook's are not evaluated.  If you rely
on that to turn on $text_flowed, you may want to add that to the command
line, or perhaps go back to just 'unset signature'.
