The signature can make or
break your professional emails. Without them, we can’t imagine official emails
and nowadays a well-structured signature is a must. Let’s compare how you can
create a signature in Outlook vs. how you can do it in eM Client.
How to make a signature in Outlook
If you are using Outlook and
wondering how to create a signature, we hope to help you with that.
To create a signature, launch
the Outlook app and open a new message. In the new message window, go to the
Message menu in the top toolbar, select Signature, then
Signatures.
When Signature settings are
opened, look for the “Select signature to edit” section and below it, you
should
see the “New” button.
Click on “New” and
compose
your signature, set it as default for the respective account, and/or set it as
default for replies and forwards too. When you’re done, hit the “OK”
button to
save the signature.
If you would also like to
know how to change email signature in Outlok, it’s very easy. Navigate back to
the signature menu, select the signature you’ve previously created and you can
edit it below in the “Edit Signature” section. Hit the “OK” button
again, to
confirm the changes and that should be it.
To remove the signature,
select one of your signatures, and click on “Delete” below the “Select
signature
to edit” section.
How to make a signature in eM Client
eM Client offers a lot of
customization options and the signatures are no exception to that. In this part
of the article, we are going to take a closer look at the signatures feature in
eM Client.
Navigate to the eM Client
Menu and click on Settings. Proceed to Mail and open the
Templates and
signatures section. As the name may suggest, this section is split into
two-
Mail Templates, and Signatures. To get to the signature editor,
click on the
“Signatures” button and a new window will appear.
In the signature editor click
on the “New” button, name the signature and insert or type the signature
in the
text field below. You can add almost all the formatting you can think of and
make the signature pop. With the signature completed click on the “Save”
button
to preserve the changes.
If you already have a
signature in an HTML file it can be imported using the “Import” button
and in
case you have signatures in Gmail or Exchange accounts, eM Client can even sync
those from the server so your existing signatures don’t have to be transferred
as long as you are using Gmail or Exchange with eM Client. Apart from the import
and signature synchronization, you can save your signatures that were composed
in eM Client, just click on the “Save as” button in the signature editor and
save the signature as an HTML file.
Back to the “Templates and
Signatures” settings because there are still a few things to cover.
In the “Signatures”
section
you can select which signature you want to use with a specific account. Whether
you want to use a different or the same signature with each of your accounts,
you can also set different account signatures for new emails, replies, or
forwards, it’s all possible just in case you would like to have different
signatures for different scenarios.
If you want to keep things
simple, you can leave these settings at their default values and pick the
signature for a new email from the list when composing the message.
Don’t hesitate to give eM
Client a try and if you are already using it, we hope you found this article
helpful and informative.
