In a ideal world, I would love it if we could assign signatures and have the option to only apply it to new emails & or replies/forwards.

However, it's totally backward when I have signatures to insert by default. In new emeails it is not an issue.

However, on a reply email, or even a *long series* of email interaction with replies/responses back and forth....it drives me insane that the signature defaults to the very bottom of the email chain.

Suffice to say, I have changed it so that it does not do the autosignature .

In a ideal world, I would love it if we could assign signatures and have the
option to only apply it to new emails & or replies/forwards.

I have them turned off and use one of the third party applications like
SpellCatcherX, TypeIt4Me, Typinator etc. to insert my sig using my shortcut.

For example, you could use shorcut, sigwork to insert your full sig. When
you are replying afterwards, use shorcut "x" (insert the first letter of
your name). For me I use the shortcut "d" and it insert my sig at the bottom
of this message and includes the delimiters dash dash space return

However, it's totally backward when I have signatures to insert by default. In
new emeails it is not an issue.

However, on a reply email, or even a *long series* of email interaction with
replies/responses back and forth....it drives me insane that the signature
defaults to the very bottom of the email chain.

Use the setting to reply below then use script by Paul Berkowitz "Reply
Insertion Reversed" to reply on top. This gives you the best of both worlds.

How to set.
