Create a Signature

In an e-mail message, a signature is a small

amount of text that appears at the bottom of

the message. Rather than typing this

information manually, you can create the

signature once and then have Entourage insert

the signature into any message you create.

Signatures usually contain personal contact information, such as

your phone numbers, business address, and e-mail and Web site

addresses. Some people supplement their signatures with wise or

witty quotations.
