Outlook Express Email Signatures

Note:

A lot of free servers like Angelfire do not allow remote linking to images in email signatures.

If your server allows remote linking use your own server to store your images and or sounds.

Open Notepad.

Make an HTML document for your Email signature.

I made a bunch of self-explaining screenshots to walk you through the process.

They open in New Windows.

They start here:

  1. See Notepad Screenshot
  2. See Save As Screenshot
  3. See Save As 2 Screenshot
  4. See Outlook Express Options Screenshot

    If you presently have no signature you click the "New" button.

  5. See Outlook Express Browse Screenshot
  6. See My Documents Screenshot
  7. See Outlook Express Browse Open Screenshot

    The first signature you make will automatically be set as the "Default" signature.

  8. See Default Screenshot
  9. See Making More Signatures Screenshot
  10. See Setting Signatures Screenshot

Here is mine as an example to follow:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <html> <head> <META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> </head> <body link="#ff0000" alink="blue" vlink="darkbrown"> <BLOCKQUOTE style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #1010ff 2px solid"> <align="left"> <p> <a href="https://www.angelfire.com/games4/tombraiderhelp/indexpage.html"> <font size="4"><b>My Index Page</b></font> </a> <p> <a href="mailto:medab1@yahoo.com"><font size="3"><b>Email Me</b></font></a> </align></blockquote> </body> </html>

I didn't use a title in the Head tag.

I keep it saved in My Documents as Signature.html.

Here is a screenshot that explains setting up a signature:

(It opens is a new window.Maximize it to see it bigger.)

www.boomspeed.com provides 1 MB of free space for images or sounds.

Plenty of space for a few email signature files to be stored.

They allow stored images to be linked to in email signatures.

Here is an example of my signature with an image & a sound added:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <html> <head> <META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> </head> <body link="#ff0000" alink="blue" vlink="darkbrown"> <BLOCKQUOTE style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #1010ff 2px solid"> <align="left"> <p> <a href="https://www.angelfire.com/games4/tombraiderhelp/indexpage.html"> <font size="4"><b>My Index Page</b></font> </a> <p> <a href="http://www.boomspeed.com/david111/Haha.wav"><b>Click Here To Hear Music</b></a> <p> <img src="http://www.boomspeed.com/david111/david.gif"> <p> <a href="mailto:medab1@yahoo.com"><font size="3"><b>Email Me</b></font></a> </align></blockquote> </body> </html>

Background sounds are nice but cause slow loading.

Provide a clickable link to music so people can play it if they WANT to play it.
