Hello,
Is there any way to make a signature that appears everytime I want to write
a new message using Outlook XP but this signature can't be erased from the
body message?
any help would be appreciated.

The signature delimiter "-- " (dash, dash, space, carriage return) is a
de facto standard, not an RFC standard. The signature is part of the
body of the message (i.e., the part you can edit in the lower compose
pane.

This is not possible. Anything you put in the body can be erased before you
send the message.

Sorry, my error. I was talking about signatures for newsgroup posts.
See my prior post for an example. See where is the "-- " signature
delimiter? Note that the "-- " is what is commonly used in newsgroups.
E-mail programs often just add some additional text at the end of your
message, so they don't follow any standard, de facto or RFC based. It's
just more content stuffed at the end of your message. It is not
separate of the body of your message. In Outlook, Tools -> Options ->
Mail Format has a button for you to manage your signatures.
