		<description>There is some automated mail signature software out there called: Symprex Mail Signature Manager, it works with rtf, txt and html. Its very flexible, intregates into AD, pulling all it's info from AD. 

We have have used it for approx 6 months, allowing us to have standardised email signatures across our AD domain.</description>

		<description>For those of you who want to set this automatically (Which, if you're going to script it as a GPO, you will definitely want to) this is the solution, it may sound a bit silly, but hey, it's VBS :)

You have create a Word object. For some reason, Microsoft have put all of the signature apis into Word, rather than Outlook. Just put in the following code:

Set objWord = CreateObject("Word.Application")
objWord.Visible = false
Set objEmailOptions = objWord.EmailOptions
Set objSignatureObject = objEmailOptions.EmailSignature
Set objSignatureEntries = objSignatureObject.EmailSignatureEntries
objSignatureObject.NewMessageSignature = "Default"

Change "Default" to the name of the file, if you have changed it.

I personally dislike full sized signatures in reply emails, so one extra thing I have done, is modified the above script (That you very much for that by the way, I didn't realise you could use HTML, makes life so much easier.. I just have to figure out how to embed images now) to create two seperate files, one for new emails, and one for replies, and added the following line to my little snippet above:

objSignatureObject.ReplyMessageSignature = "Default - Reply"

Just copy and paste the "Now we create the Rich Text signature" and "And finally, the HTML signature" - changing the "Default.htm" and "Default.rtf" to "Default - Reply.htm" and "Default - Reply.rtf" and you'll be set.</description>

		<description>Fixed =)  One of my collegues was a good html programmer... the solution is use the br tag.

So... now only one question: the signature is created but not loaded automatically. How can i do this, if i can do this?</description>

		<description>Works great but how do you tell Outlook to use the Default signature for New messages and Replies/Forwards?  It created it just fine but didn't set it as the signature to use.  I need that code if you know it.</description>

		<description>Hi Steven,&lt;/p&gt;

I've had a quick look at the RTF fonts thing. If you find the line that says:

&lt;code&gt;{\fonttbl{\f0\fswiss\fcharset0 Arial;}}&lt;/code&gt;
You can extend this like so:

&lt;code&gt;{\fonttbl{\f0\fswiss\fcharset0 Arial;}{\f1\fswiss\fcharset1 &lt;em&gt;FONT NAME HERE&lt;/em&gt;;}}&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/code&gt;

You could add as many fonts as you liked (incrementing the &#34;f&lt;em&gt;x&lt;/em&gt;&#34; each time). Then, wherever you want to use your new font, precede the line with \f&lt;em&gt;x&lt;/em&gt;, as so:

&lt;code&gt;\f0 this text is in font f0, \f1 and this text will be in font f1&lt;/code&gt;

I hope this makes sense!

		<description>Sorry, ignore my last comment, I was being dim lol.

One other question, how would I specify the font, size, and style of the rich text? I have searched the internet tirelessly for about an hour and a half and I can't seem to find an answer.

On our network all emails are either rich text or plain text (if sent or replied from a blackberry).</description>
