Hi all

I posted the question below on the OE6 newsgroup but came to the conclusion
that OE6 cant really handle this very well so I thought I would ask the
question here

I'm trying to setup different signatures for multiple different accounts.

I've setup 10 accounts and 10 signature files

However when I start a new message it puts in the signature from the default
account.

If I then straight away change the "From" account......The signature does
NOT change ?

Surely if you can set different signatures for different accounts on the
signatures tab in the tools menu ...... then these should be used when the
appropriate 'From' account is changed ?? Otherswise what is the point in
setting them up ??

Thanks in advance

Andrew

This is not a forum for OE. But--the default acct and signature will always
be used automatically. You must choose the sending acct from the Accts list.
If you set up each acct's signature as NONE, you will be able to use the acct
and the signature you want without having to delete the default signature.
Just use the InsertSignature command on the menu after you have selected the
acct and written the email. Place the cursor where you want the signature.
You'll see the list of all 10 of your signatures to choose from.

Thanks very much for your reply

I do reailse that this is not the OE forum but I wanted to ask the same
question to see if 'full' outlook had better signature features than OE

Does your answer below refer to 'full' outlook or OE ?

Thanks again
