How-To Guides: Creating an E-Mail Signature

An e-mail signature consists of text, pictures or both that are added to outgoing e-mail messages. Once you've created a signature, the signature will automatically appear in your outgoing messages.

To create your custom signature:

• Go to the Tools menu and click Options. An Options box will appear.
• Click on the General tab.
• Under General options, click E-mail Options at the bottom of the box, and an Email Options box will appear.
• Click the E-mail Signature tab.
• In the Type the title of your e-mail signature or choose from the list box, type a name for your signature.
• In the Create your e-mail signature box, add the text or pictures, or both, that you want to use for your signature, e.g.,

  Jane Doe, Director
  ABC Child Care
  111 Front St.
  Anytown, PA 17111
  Phone: 222-220-2222
  jdoe@internetprovider.net
  www.abcdc.net

• Click OK (or Add depending upon your version of Outlook).

 

The next time you send an email, your signature will appear at the end of the email.
