If you can send your email as HTML you can include your SWF in your email - just do it as you are preparing a normal HTML. But you cannot assume that all your recipients will see your SWF, as you won't be able to tell what kind of email client your recipients are using. Chances are your recipients are using Microsoft products (which are the worst available) and if so probably they will see nothing. Place a link to your SWF in your email as well so that Microsoft users can reach your SWF.

I use Thunderbird under OSX, because back in early days of OSX I couldn't create HTML email using Mail easily. I can't tell as I'm on an XP machine at this moment, but things may have changed these days and may be you can now. Do a test: create a signature in HTML and see if you can use it as your mail signature. (Or use Thunderbird.)
