Which value replaces a conditional placeholder in a signature depends on a set of user-defined conditions that are checked as the signature is added to an email. Conditional placeholders can be used e.g. to add a generic phone number to an email signature if a sender has no phone number specified in AD, or to insert different marketing banners for selected users only. |
