email signature help

[i234i]

so ive made a new signature and it looks great.

i saved it and it appears in outlook.

but when it shows all the links (w: www.mywebsite.com) is underlined, its NOT in the preview of my signature as a html file though.

Any ideas ?? i recieved an email from someone else with no underlines. have tried to use style no decoration etc too


anyone help?

right click on it in outlook signatures and take the option for remove hyperlink

i feel silly! but i cant find that!
i tried option > signatures but cant see anything to remove hyperlink

 

[dave_n]

tools>options>mail format>signatures>

make sure u are not editing your signature in word

 

[i234i]

my sig is saved as a file, i edited it in Frontpage.

If i go Tools > Options there is no Mail Format bit but i go straight to Signature.
It then gives me a bit to find a file??? I put in mine.

Still dont see the bit for no hyperlinks etc

Can you upload the html file to your site and I will have a look for you.

It is also possible the mail client is "helping you out" by recognizing the www prefix for a URL and automagically adding a link in for you. Afterall... the software knows best, right?

(Microsoft Word Autoformatting, anyone?)

All of your graphics in html email need to be uploaded to your web site and the graphics in your email and the links need to be absolute links including the http bit. ie: http://www.askinsight.com/jeff-smith.jpg

If you create the email in Dreamweaver or something like that, by default, the links will be relative to the root folder; you need to edit the links so that they are absolute.
