Signature attaching from Outlook, but NOT on link/page send emails

[GregB]

I just converted from 2000 to Outlook 2003.

My automatic signature insertion will not work when I am forwarding a link
or page from Internet Explorer.

BTW: It does work when sending, replaying, or forwarding emails from outlook.

Any help will be greatly appreciated

My automatic signature insertion will not work when I am forwarding a link
or page from Internet Explorer.

That's because the Mail button in IE (and any other application) uses Simple
MAPI, which does not have access to the signature routines. Add the signature
manually (with the Signature button) when the message window appears.

Thank You Brian. The funny thing is that in Outlook 2000 it did work
automatically. Secondly, I cannot find a button to click --just the pull
down menu...and it inserts the signature without my preferred colored fonts.

Did you use IMO mode? It may have worked in it because it uses simple mapi
but outlook corp mode has never inserted signatures when you use the file,
send menus.
