It will in Outlook 2007.
-- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.turtleflock.com/olconfig/index.htm and Microsoft Outlook Programming - Jumpstart for Administrators, Power Users, and Developers http://www.outlookcode.com/jumpstart.aspx "Roee" wrote in message ... I think Outlook should have an Insert-Signature submenu regardless of the editor. "Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook]" wrote: What version of Outlook are you using? If 2003, simply right click on the signature and choose another. I have over 50 signatures (yeah, I am a packrat!) and I can swiftly change what signature I use in a few seconds. (Note - you must be using Word 2003 for this to work.) --Â Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook] Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact. All unsolicited mail sent to my personal account will be deleted without reading. After furious head scratching, Jim D asked: | Even though I can create multiple signatures for new/reply/forwarded | emails, the option is one for new &/or one for replies/forwards or | none. However, if I create a business signature, a business reply | signature, a friends/family signature, I either have to accept the | same for all similar functions (i.e. -- replies, whether business or | family must be the same signature). What would be nice is to have the | ability to do the following: | | In the email contact, specify what signature I'd like to use for new, | replies/forwards, &/or all, etc. | *For example, my sister sends me an email. My current setting in the | Signatures setup is to reply w/ "First & Last Name". However, my | sister does not need my last name. Sure it's simple enough to scroll | down and erase my last name after completing my email, but that | negates the pupose of the automation. OR, I could opt for "no | signature" in the Signature setup and insert it from the Insert drop | down menu, which is unnecessary movement. OR, I could use the Insert | drop down menu to insert the signature for my family and then erase | the automatic "First & Last Name" signature I originally set up in | the Signatures setup menu - one more time, why automate if I have | partially negate. | | **My suggestion is to provide a place in the Outlook contact | information section for me to assign specific signatures for | individual contact members. Using my sister example again. In my | sister's information contact card, I should be able to assign a new | message signature and a reply/forward message signature for her card. | Similar for every contact in my address book. However, if I choose | NOT to assign a signature for certain contacts, the signature I | assigned in the setup menu under Options would be applied to emails | as stipulated for new, reply, forward, etc. | | ***If this could not be added to the Contact info card, then I'd | suggest being able to create a rule for this scenario. Rule starts: | 1) sister name is in the From section of a received email - check | that condition, 2) reply with specified signature - thus allowing me | to select which signature I'd like to apply to replies/forwards to my | sister. Should be simple to set up for each contact I'd like to apply | specific signatures to their emails. | | ****Last, if the above are NOT possible, then create a dedicated | keystroke for signatures. Therefore, I'd select "None" for signatures | to be applied to new or reply/forward emails. Once an email had been | completed, I'd bring up the signature options and click to insert | which signature was appropriate. | | This would be a great feature to have for the signatures portion, as | I love having as much automation as possible or simplified | keystroking -- less mouse movement. Typing and then having to move to | the mouse and then back to the keyboard is not efficient. | | Let me know what you think of my suggestion(s) OR if I am unaware of | an automation already in place. | | Thanks |
