Outlook should let me insert my email signature on demand

J

JW Peters

In Outlook under "Options" a signature can be added, to insert in New
Messages or Replies and Forwards.
I find it very helpfull when on an incidental basis I can insert my
signature by using a command under the menu <Insert>. I am quite sure that
this option existed in previous versions of Outlook. Now my company switched
to a newer version and this option disappeared.

WordMail does not include an Insert | Signature command like the regular Outlook editor. If you want to be able to insert a signature into a WordMail message manually, you can create an AutoText entry for each signature. You can then insert them with the Insert | AutoText command.

Or, create multiple signatures the normal way (Tools | Options | Mail Format) and make one the default. If you want to use a different signature for the current message, right-click the signature that Outlook inserted automatically. From the pop-up menu, select either the name of the signature you want to use or E-mail Signature to create a new one. I personally prefer this technique. This is also the technique you need to use if you want Outlook 2003 to automatically change your signature when you switch accounts on an unsent message.

If you use Word as email editor, this option is _not_ avaiable.

Well, the option is available, just not done from the Insert menu.
