Replying to emails (signature)

When I reply to an email my signature seems to appear right at the bottom of
the email (underneath all of the emails that have been included. Is there
any way of including this at the top of the message (I bet it's a simple
setting that I've missed!)

Thanks.../// Alan

Yes, there is a setting in the "Mail & News Preferences".
I couldn't describe it precisely (I'm at work on a PC,
here) but it's a checkbox titled something like "insertion
point after the quoted text".

I know it's not too obvious, but I guess you'll find out.
If you don't, post back, I'll try to be more precise this
evening from my home :)

98) How can I customize my options for placing my cursor and signature in
replies?


There are several options in Entourage allowing you to customize your reply
format. By default, your reply and signature will both appear at the bottom.
These preferences are located in Edit -> Preferences -> Mail and News under
the Reply and Forward tab, under Mail Attribution.


If you want your insertion point below the quoted text and your default
signature below that, select "Use internet-style attribution lines" without
checking the box below.

If you wish for your reply to be on top but your default signature to remain
on the bottom, select ŒUse Internet-style attribution lines¹ with ŒPlace
insertion point before quoted text¹ checked.

If you want your cursor to appear on top and your signature below that (but
before the quoted text), select ³Use short header-style attribution lines².
In Entourage 2001, you can still achieve the same effect using
internet-style attribution lines. Direct download the Reply Insertion Above
AppleScript.

In Entourage X, you can reply at the top just for specific messages,
including news messages, with the script "Reply Insertion Reversed". (Script
ID: 301)

Note: Some lists require bottom posting replies to list messages. Top
replies are used more in a business setting.
