how to audit users' Outlook signatures?

[Bob]

I have a reason to audit the signature text that users can place in their
email messages. Aside from journaling to capture and examine every message
sent, is there a way I can access this information for every user? Where is
the signature info stored, exactly? I can't figure it out.

I have about 250 users all on current Outlook 2003 and we're on Exchange
Enterprise 2003.

Any advice is appreciated.

thanks,
bob

Usually signatures are kept on the individual's PC in the folder
%AppData%\Microsoft\Signatures.

Since the user can change the signature text on any given message, reading every message would be the only way to know for certain what signature text was used.
