A common problem goes something like this: "I created an email signature and want it to show up automatically. I followed the instructions, and it still will not show up on the email. I have shut down and re-opened Outlook and still nothing."

In Outlook 2003 with Word as the email editor and multiple accounts, signatures change when select another account, *provided* you have a signature assigned to the default account. While you don't need one assigned to every account, if you choose an account without a default sig, the autosignature feature stops working if the selected account doesn't have a signature.

So... assign a signature to all of your email accounts, even if it's just a blank one. Create a Blank sig using two dashes and press Enter - name it Blank and assign it to any account that doesn't have a sig.
