Likewise all works for me excluding the signature, which becomes active and then returns to none..
delay 1
is needed to finish attaching the file. BTW, signature does not work for me also.
@Quantizen where does delay 1
go?
@Quantizen nevermind, I got it! Just put it before the send command and worked like a charm. Been searching and searching for that!
Definitely needed the delay command. I used a delay 5
just in case things are going slow. Put it right before send command. I skipped using the signature and added it to the content itself.

This works for me except the signature part... I am experimenting on a fix but having trouble
