A signature file can provide useful information such as a mailing and email address, phone/fax number, web site address or other contact information.

Four or five lines are about the maximum. The signature file usually appears at the end of your email message. Think of the signature file as your electronic business card

To create your new signature in Eudora, do the following:

·

From the Tools menu, choose Signatures or click the Signature window's tab if it is the inactive window in a tabbed group. The Signature window appears.

·

Right-click anywhere inside the Signature window and choose New from the context menu (right-click). Eudora displays the Create New Signature dialog box, and asks you for a name.

·

In the dialog box, enter a signature name and click OK. A signature window appears.

·

Enter your signature text in the signature window. To format the text with styles, use the text style buttons on the Eudora message window icon bar.

·

Save the signature file using the File menu Save command.

·

Close the signature window.

·
