2) The problem with the signature is that OE isn't smart enough to change
the signature when change the FROM selection. As a workaround, in
signatures uncheck the option to automatically add signatures. Then after
selecting the correct From address, use the Insert, Signature menu item.

Hi Mac, thanks for getting back to me. After spending 1 hour I have tried
these,

1, yes I am clicking the apply, but it still does not work.

2, I have tried this also but I find when I go to create mail and select
the
account I wish to use in the drop down menu, the signature does not
change.
I am using html signatures but I suppose this does not make any
difference,
can you give me any info on what I may be doing wrong?

Thanks for your help.
Mark



I have a couple of questions and wondered if anyone could help me out
please.

1, I have a machine at home and 2 machines at work, both using outlook
express 6 one using windows xp and the other using windows 2000. The
problem
I am getting is that the box under advanced in outlook express which
says
leave on the server for XXX days keeps getting unchecked, which means
if
I
read my emails at home or on one of the machines at work, I cannot
read
the
emails on the main machine at work..

I find I am ticking this box every day and something keeps on
unticking
it...?


2, I have a couple of email accounts and on one of them have a
signature
for, I was wondering if outlook express allows different signatures
for
different email accounts?

I hope someone can help me.

Thanks for your time.

Regards,

Mark Jordan

Hi the none retention of the setting, if it only happens on one machine,
could indicate a corrupt account, remove after noting all your settings,
and
reinstall it. , but if it is on them all? Then are you completing the
process correctly by Apply then OK?

A sig' can be set as default for each account, use the 'advanced' button
after selecting the sig' then check the relevant accounts to apply it
to.
