Do you get tired of typing your contact information at the end of every email? Well Outlook can help by automatically adding your signature for you to every message that you send. You first need to create a signature and then set it as the default.

NOTE   Keep in mind that if you don’t want to use the default signature when you reply or forward a message, you shouldn’t create a default signature but instead, insert a signature into every new message. For more information, see Insert a signature into a message.
