Adding Custom Signature to Outlook<\/h4>\n

By Dave Taylor<\/p>\n

<\/strong>The Question:The boss wants us to all use Outlook.com so I\u2019m getting used to it. My question: how can I add a custom signature to my account so that every new message automatically has my signature included? <\/i><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/p>\n

Dave’s Answer: <\/strong><\/p>\n

Outlook.com, also known as Live.com Email, is a second (third?) generation webmail interface from the Microsoft team and it\u2019s quite well done, quite elegant. Just as importantly, it\u2019s integrated into Office 365 so it\u2019s easy to access your Word online documents and other content through OneDrive, etc. We\u2019ve also had email around for long enough now that the core functionality is very well understood so you should find a ton of similarities between Google\u2019s Gmail, Yahoo Mail and Outlook.com.<\/p>\n

So let me show you how to add a custom signature to your composition window in Outlook.com but also point out a couple of useful areas and features along the way too.<\/p>\n
