Hello all,
I have two companies and have created a signature for each in Outlook. Is there an easy way to designate what signature to use when I click on New Message. Right now I need to go to Email options and change the processing order to put the correct account at the top. There has to be a better way, right?
 
If you set up the signature settings so that you don't have a signature automatically added to each e-mail, you can then manually insert the correct signature you like by going to New Message, Insert, Signature and choosing from the list.

Thanks for the quick reply. I went under Options and set the signature for new messages to <none>. When I tried the above commands, my signatures did not appear in any list. What did I miss?
 
Hi,
In Outlook 2003, Tools | Options | Mail Format | Signatures. Set either of the two signatures as the one for New Mail messages.

Then, when you create a new Mail message, right click on the existing signature and you should be able to select the other one from a list.

HTH,


Best,

I have the same thing - I use the signature for my most used email account as the standard signature and then just swap it with the other when I need to.

If you find another way I'd be happy to know it too though.

Thank BlueHorizon. I learn something new every day!
