Signature

It is common to include a signature at the bottom of email messages.   The signature contains bits of personal information that you wish to include with each message.  After you create a signature, it is automatically added to all outgoing messages.

When using Yahoo! Mail, you always have the option to add or remove your signature before sending a new message by clicking the "Use My Signature" checkbox at the bottom of  the Compose Mail screen.

To view or change your signature:

  • Click the "Mail Options" link in the upper right-hand area of the screen.
 



  • Click the "Signature" link under the Personalization column on the left.
  • Your current signature (if any) will be displayed in the text area.
 


  • Change your signature by typing over the existing text, or enter a new one by typing in the blank text area
  • If you would like the "Use Signature" checkbox on the Compose Mail screen to be checked by default when composing a new message, click on the "Add signature to all messages" checkbox beneath the text area. (You will still have the option to uncheck this box if you want to send a message without your signature.)

Remember to click the "Save" button when you're done. This will put your new signature into effect.
