Email Responder: Mail Format Settings

Email Responder: Mail Format Settings

The Mail Format Settings control the appearance of mail that you send from Email Responder.  It is divided into two sections, Message Format and Signatures.

Message Format

You can use the Select Mail Format drop-down list to choose either HTML or plain text as your default mail type.  Whichever you select, Email Responder will still reply to HTML messages using HTML mail, and the choice here can be overridden when typing a message.

If you select HTML mail, the Choose Font button can be used to select a default font for formatted messages.  While typing a message, you can change the font to anything you choose.

Signatures

The Signatures section lets you create email signatures, and assign one to each account.  (See Sending Mail for instructions on using Signatures.)  

To assign a signature to a particular Account, select the Account in the When sending e-mails from account drop-down list.  Then, from the use drop-down list, pick the signature that should be added to all messages sent using that return address.

To create signatures, click the Signatures button.  The View Signature window will open:

This window is used to create, edit, and delete signatures.  To create a signature, click Add.  The Edit Signature window appears.

Assign a name to your signature, and enter the text.  You can use formatting including boldface, italics, and underlining.  If a message is sent as plain text,all formatting will be ignored.  When you're done, click OK.

You can edit an existing signature by selecting it in the list and clicking Change, or delete one by selecting it and clicking Remove.

Use Default

Click Use Default to return all Mail Format settings to their original values.  This does not delete any signatures that have been created, but it does remove any signature assignments for Accounts.
