Default Signature and Document Scanner

Ref: Outlook 2003

I have 3 email accounts that have disclaimers in the signatures blocks and
it works fine whenever I create an email.

When I scan a document (which creates a new email) the disclaimer is not
inserted into the new email.

Help!

Save the scanned document, then use Outlook to create a new email message and attach the saved file.

Is outlook working as designed? In this case, a new email is not a new mail
when the email is created automatically for the user?

Really would like to avoid using this workaround.

Yes, Outlook is working as designed in this scenario. The mechanism used by the scanner software to create the message is not Outlook. It's Simple MAPI, which calls the default mail program on the machine, which is Outlook in your case. Simple MAPI knows nothing about signatures (or HTML-format messages, for that matter).

Thus, if you want Outlook features, you need to use Outlook directly to create the message.
