Dear John,
Thank you for posting here. And thanks Sue for sharing experience.
I agree with Sue. This behavior occurs because the method of composing a
message with an attachment (right click file -> click Send To -> click Mail
Recipient) does not use the signature and message format options configured
in Outlook. The message is created in plain text format by default.
You could use the following steps to work around this behavior:
For Outlook 2003/2003:
297332 OL2002: You Cannot Insert a Signature into a New Message from Word
2002
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=297332
For Outlook 2000:
249129 OL2000: Signature Not Inserted When "Send To" Mail Recipient is Used
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=249129
Hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any other concerns or
questions. Thanks and have a nice day!
Thanks & Regards,
Lee Li

| Hi,
|
| Quick question about signatures. I have Outlook 2003 and my signature
| works great when I am in Outlook and compose a new mail msg within
Outlook.
|
| But If I right click on a document on my desktop, and select Send To -->
| Mail Recipient, it will not display my Signature, only displays:
|
| The message is ready to be sent with the following file or link
attachments:
|
| How do I get "a" signature on it.
|
| Thanks,
|
| John.
