QuipSig - Signature Tool

Heinz Tschabitscher

The Bottom Line

QuipSig is a flexible and powerful signature tool. It can change your sig on a schedule or when run. Unfortunately, QuipSig lacks HTML support and you can't define multiple personalities.

Pros

  • QuipSig constructs and changes signatures flexibly
  • Many fields, comes with a number of quotations
  • Can change sig on schedule

Cons

  • QuipSig doesn't use the sig delimiter correctly
  • Doesn't support HTML formatting
  • QuipSig doesn't offer multiple personalities

Description

  • QuipSig creates random signatures from multiple parts.
  • Can randomize your signature periodically, when your "sent mail" file changes, or when run.
  • The QuipSig signature is written to a signature file, to be picked up by the email client.
  • Signatures are composed from multiple static and a dynamic, randomized part (containing a quote).
  • Additionally to a random quote, you can search for and use a particular signature in QuipSig.
  • QuipSig supports Windows 9x/ME/2000/3/XP/Vista.

Guide Review - QuipSig 2.1 - Signature Tool

Who wants to put the same signature in every email? Sure, there are essentials like the name, but there's also space for a witty quote — and there are many more or less witty quotations.

QuipSig handles both the static and the dynamic part gracefully and flexibly. With QuipSig, you can have a your sig file changed periodically at an interval, every time you run QuipSig, or even when a certain file (your outbox) changes.

Unfortunately, QuipSig doesn't support multiple personalities to satisfy the different signature needs of a work and a home email account, for example. QuipSig is also limited to creating plain text signatures.
