How to Choose and Insert Signatures Manually in Windows Mail or Outlook Express

By Heinz Tschabitscher, About.com

If you have created only one signature in Windows Mail or Outlook Express, the decision which signature to use is an easy one. But Outlook Express allows you to create as many signatures as you like for all the different types of emails you write.

Choose and Insert Signatures Manually in Windows Mail or Outlook Express

While composing a message in Windows Mail or Outlook Express, you can select which signature you want to use:

  • Select Insert | Signature from the message's menu.
  • Now choose the desired signature from the list.

Setting Things on Automatic

If you find you usually choose the same signature anyway, you can make Windows Mail or Outlook Express insert it by default. And if you typically use one signature for your work account, for example, and another for mail sent from your private email address, you can tell Windows Mail or Outlook Express to choose accordingly, too.
