You have already received plenty of replies about this.

As others have mentioned, the default can be set in the Signatures 
preferences pane, but then I'll recommend you also click the button to 
clear the signature cache (same window). The reason is that MailMate 
remembers your choice of signature and placement for individual 
recipients. If you haven't explicitly selected top signature placement 
in the composer window then MailMate has probably “learned” that you 
prefer bottom placement. This can be counter-intuitive when changing the 
preference. (I'm not claiming that this could not be improved. It's just 
how it works now.)
