Although there is some heated debate about which details should be included, what we are basically talking about here are the formal bits of text found beneath your emails. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-US\">These details, for instance, need to be clearly separated from the actual content of the message (officially with a new line containing two dashes followed by an empty space) &#8211; only then will certain tricks work, such as dragging an Outlook email containing a signature onto the contacts symbol and thereby pulling all of the details contained in the signature into a prefilled mask as if by magic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-US\">The other tips can best be read in the original <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.makeuseof.com\/tag\/create-perfect-email-signature\/\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">text by Joel Lee<\/span><\/a><span lang=\"EN-US\">. One can, moreover, not emphasize often enough that the so-called email disclaimer, added by many companies to their emails, is about as useful as a bicycle without wheels (such a disclaimer has actually got nothing to do with a signature). <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-US\">Regardless of how much sense a disclaimer actually makes &#8211; Retarus E-Mail Security customers can use the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.retarus.com\/tech-products\/email-security-and-compliance-services\/\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">outbound feature E-Mail Signature<\/span><\/a><span lang=\"EN-US\"> to furnish outgoing emails automatically with virtually any number of personalized signatures and disclaimers. These text blocks can be administrated centrally and edited conveniently by means of a WYSIWYG editor in the EAS portal. Personalization takes place directly from the Active Directory or IBM Notes\/Domino. Signatures and disclaimers can be assigned at profile level and combined freely. It is also possible to configure that signatures should only be added to external emails.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We have tips for the perfect e-mail signature for you &#8211; which you can implement with Retarus E-Mail Security right away.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":2415,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","_s2mail":"yes","footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[102,591],"dipi_cpt_category":[],"class_list":["post-2411","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-product-news","tag-email-security","tag-signatures"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.0 (Yoast SEO v25.0) -
