In this Tech Tip we're going to cover some
more customization in the OUTLOOK E-mail program;
we'll create a customized signature so that every email
we send has the same information at the bottom.
First select OPTIONS from the TOOLS
menu to display to OPTIONS window.
Now select the MAIL FORMAT tab.
This is where we left off our customization
last time. This time we select the SIGNATURES…
button to get the CREATE SIGNATURE window and create
a custom signature.
We can now see any custom signatures that
we already have, and we'll click on the NEW…
button so we can start creating our own.
The first thing we need to do is give our
new signature a name, in our example that's Brand
New Signature and then we'll click NEXT>.
Now we can enter the text that we would
like to have at the bottom of our emails, like our name,
email address, phone number, maybe even a link to Adobe
reader if we send a lot of Adobe files. Use the FONT
and PARAGRAPH… buttons to change the look
of the information you type and customise it like you
would in a document. Experiment a little to you've got
what you want and then click FINISH.
Now your back at the CREATE SIGNATURE
window, you can make another signature; or Click OK
button to get back to the OPTIONS window, now select
the signature you want to be in your messages. You can
select a different one for new messages then the one for
replies or forwards, select the ones you like and click
OK to return to OUTLOOK itself.
