The quickest way to make professional email signatures for all employees

Over 100 professional email signatures, banners, labels and disclaimer images have been made accessible for free in a built-in library of CodeTwo Exchange Rules Pro. What does it mean? It means simply that making beautiful and modern branding of your corporate electronic correspondence is now a matter of a few clicks and can be real fun!

Once you have created your rule in the administration panel of CodeTwo’s program, there are only 3 steps to make a professional email signature that can be automatically attached to all messages sent from your company’s mailboxes. In addition, it can contain names, contact details and even individual photos of each employee pulled from Active Directory.

Step 1: Find a proper action

Go to the Actions tab, click Add in the List of Actions and choose Insert disclaimer/signature. On the right hand side you can see two buttons: Options (a quick, handy function to define a position of your disclaimer – top, bottom, left or right) and the Edit template… . Click on the Edit template… button to open the Template Editor.

Step 2: Check-out the new library full of ideas

The Template Editor that facilitates CodeTwo Exchange Rules Pro has everything you need: it simple to use, rich in functions and contains an impressive library of fancy visual propositions prepared for your own use to help you establish your new, stylish e-mail branding. So even if you have to make everything from scratch and your mind goes blank as you do not know what to start with, a whole palette of lovely inspirations is already there. Simply click on the Library tab and go quickly through the list of various designs to select the one that best suits your needs (see some of the examples below).

Step 3: Use Template Editor to make your magic!

Ok, you have chosen something that looks pretty cool, but there are still no names of your company, employees’ phone numbers, e-mail addresses etc. Do not worry. Each of signatures contains Dynamic Fields that pull data, such as names, contact details and even photos from your Active Directory. They are marked with brackets: { } and can be easily edited in HTML, RTF or Plain Text preview. See below:

And that is it! The program will automatically add a customized signature to all e-mails sent by your company members specified in the Conditions tab. In the latest 1.2. version,  you can not only pull contact details kept in Active Directory to your signatures, but even add senders’ photographs.

If want to know more about creating and modifying your email signatures, there is an extensive knowledge base available on CodeTwo’s website, in user’s manual and other blog posts.

Email Disclaimers

isclaimer/ExclaimerProbably everyone who uses email has already had chance to see these mysterious faded lines attached under corporate messages.

No matter if you’re negotiating a big business deal or buying a watch in an on-line shop, it’s certain that you will find a short legal statement under a reply to your official email. And it is not only a matter of fashion or a popular whim that forces senders to add those stiff juridical sentences under the body of their emails. It is simply a must-have for everyone who wants to be in keeping with legal regulations and prevent him or herself from damaging implications of sending a business message.
