Default Unable to add HTML signature

Note: HTML Signatures must be less than 4KB.

Word processors add extra code when creating html signatures.

To wash out the extra code, open signature file with NotePad, then save and use this file.


Or create HTML signature file using Outlook Express.

Open a New Message window and create your signature. (Insert graphic & text).

Click the Source Tab. (View | Source Edit if not already checked).

Highlight the entire source code and copy / paste into Notepad.

File | Save As and in the File Name field, save as an htm file, (i.e. Sig1.htm).

It will be saved to My Documents by default.

Go to Tools | Options | Signatures.

Click: File | Browse and Insert your saved signature | Apply. You can rename it now if you wish.

Of course, if the recipient is reading in Plain Text, they won't see the graphic.
