Signature files must be created (with your favorite file editor) and kept in a group that you
will have read access to when you run NetMail. Files can be as long as you like (though very long
signature files tend to annoy mail users and eat up network bandwidth) and should be ascii files
with a record size up to 80 bytes per record. The file must remain available (it is NOT loaded by
the mail system until each time it is accessed). It can thus be edited and changed as required with-
out having to re-"SET" the file in NetMail.
You may select a signature file which will (optionally) append to your outgoing mail mes-
sages with the "SIGNATURE" selection under the Options menu. In the "
you may provide a filename to enable your signature, or blank out the name (type spaces over the
filename) to clear your signature file.
If you set a signature file, then you will normally be prompted whenever you send a mes-
sage as to whether you want your signature appended to the outgoing message. This appears in the
form of a box you must select in the window which pops up when you choose to compose/send a
message. However, you can also specify that you want your signature to ALWAYS be appended
and you need not check the box when sending a message. To do this, type in a "!" (exclamation
point) before the signature file's filename. When you specify a signature file, the file must already
exist and be readable from your logon.
