Plain Text Signature - Info appears on one line rather than new li

B

Barry

I am using Plain Text as my Outlook 2003 message format, and my signature
looks like the following:
Name
Title Company email_address
phone
fax
URL

It should read like this:
Name
Title
Company
email_address
phone
fax
URL

Can anyone tell me why the carriage returns in my signature are not
appearing? I created the signature in Tools->Options-Mail
Format->Signatures, and there's nothing fancy about it. Thanks

Edit the txt-file of your signature;
C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Application Data\Microsoft\Signatures

Does it look like that on the message before you send it?

For best results with recent Outlook clients that your recipients may have,
indent each line after the first (or including the first) at least 3 spaces.
That will prevent Outlook 2002 and 2003 from removing line breaks from the
signature in received messgaes.

The file looks the way that I want it to look. Is there something special I
should do to it?

Yes it does.
