You have access to root, but your webserver and SquirrelMail does not have
it. Webserver might be able to read signature data, if it is world readable.
It won't be able to update that data without some custom wrapper, which can
elevate webserver privileges to root or signature file owner level.

All code for handling file preferences is in functions/file_prefs.php.
Signature handing is in getSig and setSig functions.

SquirrelMail also has plugin for user preferences in ldap, if you want to
implement custom preference backend.
