Hi

Does anybody know if I can change the name of the Outlook signature through
the registry?
I need to change all company computers to use each users initials as name
for the Outlook signature.

No, as the signature name is not stored in the registry. It's just a simply
html, txt and rtf-file.

Out of interest; why are you concerned about the name of a signature? What
benefits do you think to get by applying such a structure?

Hi Robert

We have around 80 employees and I have had to do changes to the signature
twice the last year where I have sent out a mail with instructions. The
problem is that not everybody do what they are told and some of them do it
wrong.
I need a way to controll our company signature so that I can make sure that
they are all the same and if I need to make any changes I can do it without
any user input.
My idea was to create a html for each user once and when I make changes I
just copy out the html file to the Signaturs folder on each users computer.
And thats why I asked for a registry key to control the name of the
signatures.
