Weird problem with vi... "Not that many lines in buffer"

I just created this .signature file, and for some reason every time this
is in a file, and I do a "vi" of that file I get the following message...

".signature" 4 lines of 300 characters Not that many lines in buffer

I've tried all kinds of things to alliviate this, I retyped the file 
(verbatim) and it still came back... I guess it doesn't like my .signature :-(
If you save this message (or try to reply to it) and vi is your editor, it
should crop up (at least on the UNIX PC).  Is something wrong with my
editor, should I reinstall the ENHANCED EDITORS?
