Hello, I am trying to write a little client macro that will intercept
incoming emails to a group mail-box, log them in a database and send back a
simple acknowledgement reply.

I’ve got it working, but with one irritation. When I create the reply using
the CreateItemFromTemplate method, it adds any default signature I have to
the bottom of the message.

Is there a way I can disable the auto-signature at the start of the macro
and re-enable it at the end (if it was originally enabled)?

I don’t just want to turn off my auto-signature as I’m hoping to distribute
the macro to a team of people and it is unrealistic to expect them all to
change their settings to suit my incompetence.

Thanks,
Phil.

It's a setting in the registry, and Outlook read that only once at startup.

As you know your template's content, wouldn't it be possible to strip out
anything that doesn't belong to it?

OK. Thank you.
Not quite what I'd hoped for, but if programming round it is the way to do
it, then do it I shall.
