How to Set up a Mail Signature in AOL

By Heinz Tschabitscher, About.com

Marketers use it for marketing, poets for poetry, and painters use their email signature for painting. What will you use yours for?

In AOL, you can create up to five signatures — short pieces of (mostly) text that can be added to the bottom of your emails. Usually, signatures contain your name, maybe essential contact information and often a witty quote (or marketing, or poetry, or ASCII art).

Set up a Mail Signature in AOL

To set up a signature for emails in AOL:

  • Select Mail | Set Mail Signatures from the menu in AOL.
  • Click Create.
  • Give the signature a meaningful name (under Signature Name).
  • Type the desired signature in the text field.
  • Click OK.
  • Close the Set up Signatures window.

Add Your Signature to Outgoing Mail

Now, adding the signature to any outgoing email is easy.
