Outlook 2007 Signatures

Post by Michael Abrams »

I know these are just nuisances, but they really get to me.......

I have an Auto Signature on new emails, (My Name, etc..)

I also have a bunch of signatures that are standard responses to certain emails.

In Outlook 2003, I was able to create a new email, which had my signature at the bottom, and then click Signature and add what ever other signature I wanted.

In Outlook 2007, if I try to add a signature to an email, it overwrites the one that is there.

Is there a setting I need to find that allows multiple signatures on an email?

Thank you very much. I hope I described my issue properly.

According to Can I add multiple signatures to an e-mail message?,
You can insert only one signature per e-mail message; you cannot include multiple signatures. If you want to include more information, create one signature with all the information, and then save it with a new name.
As an alternative, consider using Building Blocks (release your inner child!). See Create reuseable text blocks for e-mail messages.
Best wishes,
Hans

Somehow this is supposed to be an advance? In 2003 there was no problem. I actually used the signatures as standard replies instead of typing the same ones over & over.

Thanks Hans. Not the answer I hoped for, but I will have to live with it.

There has been a lot of grumbling about this change...

Actually, I just tried the Building blocks, and once I create all of the blocks, it will work the same as I am used to.
(May be 1 extra click, but it still beats typing)

Thanks for the link Hans !!
