Description
This feature allows you to enable an email signature that may have been previously disabled.
By default, when you create a new signature, it is disabled. To use the new signature, you have to enable it.
Also, there can be a scenario where you would have previously disabled a signature (instead of deleting it) as you didn't want to use it at that time. Now that you want to start using it again, you must enable the signature.
This topic describes how you can enable (and, if required, disable) a signature either for server-side or client-side deployment or, in some cases, both.
Server-side: Signatures are applied once the message has been routed to Exclaimer Cloud. As the signature is applied once the message has been sent, you will not see the signature while composing your email. Signatures are applied to messages sent from any device, including mobiles.
Client-side: Signatures are synchronized to Microsoft 365 (Outlook), and visible while composing your email.
To enable or disable server-side or client-side signatures, you need to:
- Configure your Exclaimer Cloud - Signatures for Microsoft 365 subscription.
- If you haven't already configured your Exclaimer Cloud - Signatures for Microsoft 365 subscription, the CONFIGURE option is displayed to allow you to configure your subscription as required.
- If you have already configured your Exclaimer Cloud - Signatures for Microsoft 365 subscription, then at a glance, you can see which option is enabled for the selected signature and, if required, make the necessary changes.
- If you haven't already configured your Exclaimer Cloud - Signatures for Microsoft 365 subscription, the CONFIGURE option is displayed to allow you to configure your subscription as required.
How to access it?
To access the Enable tab:
- From the All Signatures tab, select the signature you want to enable, then click MANAGE.
The selected signature window is displayed.
- Select the Enable tab to enable the selected signature for server-side or client-side deployment.
The above screenshot displays the configuration options for the server-side and client-side - this means that the Exclaimer Cloud - Signatures for Microsoft 365 subscription has not been previously configured.
NOTE: The CONFIGURE option is displayed only if you haven't already configured your Exclaimer Cloud - Signatures for Microsoft 365 subscription.
