I have 2 minor issues with email signatures. 1) Photos in signatures take up a lot of room, and make my Exchange Server administrator grumpy. 2) In some email applications, a photo or image makes the message appear to have an attachment. I hate it when the paperclip appears, but I can't find the attached file!

Form a business standpoint - HTML formatted emails make no snes to me. HTML formatting only increases the chances of some SPAM filter stopping your email. HTML emails are much larger in file size than plain text and thus take longer to send, longer to process, longer to traverse the net and longer to receive. Plain Text with a cincise signature staing contact information is a courtesy to your recipients.

The biggest issue I would have with an attached picture is "identity theft". With your name, e-mail address, and photograph the nasties out there are that much closer to "pretending" they are you.

On a related subject. I would like to tag my address book entries with photographs. I keep a wide list of contacts and sometimes memory fails. I use Thunderbird version 2.0.0.18. Is there a way to do this? If so, maybe you could share it at some point in the near future? Thanks Leo, I read your column/ email regularly, Don

In MS Oulook, youI didn't have to upload picture to host. in OE, I created an HTML page including the picture, but the signature shows "X" in place of it. I put the exact location of the picture in the drive in the SRC clause, still picture does not appear. Any suggestion? Thanks

I go to the signature and I type in my signature, before I was able to cut and paste my photo, somehow I deleted it, I know you have to post it on the web, where? On an e-mail? Then how do you retreve it? Once I am in my signature there is no option to upload image like a millions of people have told me....I must be having another blonde moment, a 3 month blonde moment, please help me....I appreciate it,
