Problem when signing .oft files

[pmatz]

Hi

I have a formatted email saved as a template. It has an image header, a table and various colors.
When I double click the .oft and send it it is fine, however, by default I have my digital signature applied to all out going emails. If I leave this on then the .oft file has the image stripped out and added as an attachment, and all formatting ie table & color etc is removed also!
If i send the .oft unsigned, then it is fine, and then if i forward that file from my inbox, and sign it, then that is fine.
Why would the issue only be sending the .oft with a signature? Why is it stripping the format?

Thanks

Which message format are you using? Rich Text or HTML?

HTML

Sorry, I can't find anything relevant - the only thing I found is that adding a digital signature to an Outlook template in Rich Text format will change its format to HTML, hence my question. But you are already using HTML...

No problem.

I suspect its something to do with security settings. I have the .oft files in a 'non standard' place. will try movbing them to the default templates folder, and look more in depth at the security settings around Outlook.

Failing that, I'll remove the signature!

If i move to the standard user templates location I have the same issue.
However if i publish the form, then it is fine. I have to do choose from then select it from my forms etc)
when published the form takes on the message class ipm.note though, not a mail.
will think further on this. smacks of security though.
