No signature in Tools/Send to/mail recipient

R

If I have a Word document opened and I select "Tools" then "Send To" then
"Mail Recipient" my signature (including a confidentiality statement) is not
included in the email. This is also the case when I try "Tools/Send to/Mail
Recipient (as attachment) which is more surprising to me.

Is there any way to make sure my signature and confidentiality statement are
appended to all messages sent through Outlook (regardless of how the message
is started)?

Thanks!

No, this is because Word only loads a stub of Outlook. If you want all
settings to be honored initiate a new mail from within Outlook.

Just FYI, I found that you can (after opening the email) attach a signature.
This only works if you do "Send To/Mail Recipient (for Review) of (as
attachment). Once you perform one of those functions, it opens a mail
message and you can select "Insert" Signature", then select your signature.

You might want to update that book you co-wrote :)

Inserting it manually is still possible of course but not automatically as I
implied your question.

"You might want to update that book you co-wrote :)"
No need, it's not about that ;-) It's much more an admin level book than a
user level book.
