I'd like my signature block to be in a different font from my messages.
Anyone have a clue how to make that happen?

Yeah, make an html sig. Design the sig in an OE message. Copy it. Paste
into the box for sigs at Tools/Options/Signatures.

That won't work. I just tried it. You need to make an html sig with
Front Page or some other html editor and save it to disk. Then use the
broswe feature in Signatures.

There is an option of using a signature either from text or a file. I
haven't tested this but you may be able to plant your text in a different
font, size italics or whatever in a file and use that file.

I've tried this, but rather than maintaining the font choices made in the
txt file, it inserts it in the message font.

I'll get the daughter to create an html file for me and see if that works.

Thanks for the help.

Your selected font will only display on someone else's computer if they have the font or you have your signature in a graphic.

Thanks so much. This worked. I'll save the site, in case I need to do this
again.

I had thought about making a graphic and may yet do so. I just wanted something that would differentiate my msg from my sig line. Thanks for your help.
