Since you are clearly happy to post using UTF-8, can I urge you to
fix your sig so that it comes out looking right?

I don't think that's the case.  Here is a test post using the same
newsreader and something that is probably close to what you want in
your sig.  (Yours is too messed up for me to work out exactly what
you want it to look like.)

 I should have replied to this bit earlier:  it intentionally does not
use the polebar character because the spaces required on each side of
each would make the first line not fit the standard format.

 Polebar?  You mean pipe?
 You are being anal about kerning, but you are happy to post with a sig
that no one can read and doesn't format correctly.
 

The kerning 'round the polebar would have been my own fault instead of the fault of the software.

It does not happen immediately; instead, the signature that the
software saves gets more and more corrupted each time the software is
opened.

Do you mean the problem is not with Pan after all?  "The software" is
deliberately vague and I don't know why Pan would be saving the
signature file.  It just reads it as far as I can tell.

 No, the problem is definitely with Pan.  I don't know why it would be
saving the signature file either, but it is.
 

I think Ben has shown that it doesn't.

Well, that clearly isn't true.
