I have two accounts in OE and want to use a seperate signature for each account. I set this up in the options and have the two seperate signatures, but the problem is that it always puts the first signature on all new messages. If I am replying to an email with my second account it puts the correct signature, but if I try to send a new email with the second account it uses the first signature. Any ideas on how to fix this?

In the signature setup, highlight the second signature and click on the Advanced button to assign it the correct account.

Thanks for the reply. I already did this. The thing is when I go to send a new message, a window pops up with the 1st signature in the message body already, and the 1st email account listed in the from box. If I go to the drop down menu and select the 2nd email account to send the email from the second account, the signature from the 1st account remains in the mesasage body. I have not found a way to make this work correctly.

If someone sends me an email to my 2nd account, and I reply to it, the correct signature is placed in the message. The problem is only when I am composing new messages.

A work around would be to setup seperate Identities for each account http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif Or you'd have to go in and set the second signature as defualt...Hopefully someone else has a solution.
