Missing signature when sending via a link

[bergman]

using Outlook 2007 and 2010 - if I click on a web link or if an external program calls up Outlook to initiate a message, Outlook provides a blank e-mail without my default signature. (I understand that I can "insert signature") is there a setting to make Outlook insert a signature automatically in this scenario?

In Outlook 2010:
1. Goto File > Options
2. Goto Mail > Signatures

You will have the following options in Choose default signature:
New Message: (action to take)
Replies/Forwardsaction to take)

Try modifying those settings.

Thanks, but it's not that simple. those signature options work fine for messages initiated from within Outlook.
