I have more than one email account I am using and they have different signature files related. When I open new email (no matter which account I am opening from) it comes with my default signature and I can not change that. Is there a way to change this behave? Is it possible that the signature will change corresponding to the email sender account signature when I change the sender? I hope my question is clear, but in case of further questions, do not hesitate to contact me please. with Best Regards, Erno Horvath

Isisombululo esikhethiwe

You should be able to set up a static email signature in each account's settings. I suspect it may become a little confused if you reply from within the Local Folders account; it will likely use the signature associated with Thunderbird's default account. It also messes up, I read, when you use Reply All.

I use Signature Switch. Look out for additional features like hybrid sigs, so you can have both plain text and html formatted signatures in one file. It can also choose a signature dependent on recipients/addressees rather than just the account being used when creating the message.

Some users prefer a clipboard-like tool such as QuickText or Clippings.
