Besides showing contact info to the reader, Outlook signatures have become our digital business cards that help us leave a good impression and stand out. Find out how to add and edit the signature in your Outlook account on the web and in-app, and speed up your communication process.

In this blog post, find out how to add and edit the Office 365 email signature in your Outlook account and which options are available in different Outlook versions. We’ve created a short how-to video and also outlined all the steps in the blog below.

Create a signature in Outlook Web

In the web version of Outlook, you can have only one signature per account. You can include your signature automatically on new messages and messages you forward or reply to. Learn how to add a signature in your Office 365 Outlook email by following the next steps:

1. Go to Settings on the right side of the top bar.

2. Select View all Outlook settings.

Go to Settings > View all Outlook settings

Under Mail settings:

3. Select Compose and reply.

4. In the Email signature section, add your new signature and use the available formatting options.

Compose and reply > Email Signature
  • If you want your signature to appear automatically at the bottom of every new email message, select the Automatically include my signature on new messages I compose check box.
  • If you want your signature to appear on messages that you forward or reply to, select the Automatically include my signature on messages I forward or reply to check box.

5. Select Save when you’re done.

If you’ve created a signature but didn’t choose to add it to all outgoing messages automatically, you can add it later by following the next steps:

1. In your web mailbox, choose New message.

2. After typing your message, select the More options icon.

3. Click on Insert signature on the compose pane.

New message > More options > Insert signature
