Ron: < 4KB "filtered HTML" signature file, including non-animated GIF file,
rejected. Attaching GIF file to each e-mail cumbersome: how "reference [GIF
file] picture by a link"? Thanks for all your help to me and everyone else

Start with this:

<HTML>
<BODY>
this is a signature
<IMG src="file://c:\myimages\myimage.gif">
</BODY>
</HTML>

Copy that into Notepad and then edit it. Make sure the full path to the
image is specified so WinMai can find it. Then save it as an htm file and
set that as the signature.

There is a 4 kb size limit on a signature file.
Word puts so much bloat in HTML that it is useless for creating a
signature
file.
The picture should be referenced by a link and not included in the
signature
file.

You can compose a signature with WinMail and Notepad.
Create your signature in an WinMail mail composition window.
View, check Source Edit.
Click on the Source tab.
Highlight and copy the source code.
Paste the code into Notepad.
Save As "signature.htm". Change signature to your chose of a name.
Use signature.htm for your signature file.
