OutLook Express - Signatures

Hi.

I need to attach an image as a signature, I can do this. But it needs to be used by a company so they will be wanted to add individual text on each one as it will be used by 10+ machines. Exmaple..


Addres
line1
line2
line3
Bla
TEL: 111
FAX: 222

etc etc

If this is possible, how so?

Thanks
Callum

 

Thanks for the welcome lol

This is as I thought. I know its possible in Outlook but was unsure of express. A client asked, we dont use it in house .

Thanks again

 

Hi Callum, you can do what you want with a bit of a workaround, somewhat clumsy by doable.

1. Create a jpg file with the signature (scan signature into a jpg and reduce to a usable size, approx 200 pixels Wide x 42 Pixels Deep).

2. Using Notepad create an htm file pointing to the jpg file with the signature.
Example: file name "signature.htm" with the code: <img src= "C:\My Documents\John\signat.jpg "></img>

3. In OE Tools>Options>Signatures create new signature, click on the "File" button and browse to the location of the "signature.htm" file you created. Click Apply or OK and Ok you way out. You now have a signature you can insert into e-mails.

Not done yet!!!

You can't put any text into this new signature. You will have to create another new signature with the address, line 1,2 etc. and phone numbers etc. in it.

To use in an e-mail insert the "signature" (htm) first the right underneath insert the signature with the addy and phone numbers. End result will look like one signature.

As I said before a little clumsy but seems to work. Hope this helps.

See sample attachment.

Edit: Just went back and re-read your posts and see that you want to do this for 10+ machines, agree with PeteC you would have to set up for each user individually. May or may not work.
