An email signature is an efficient way to provide all those details you want to include in every email without having to retype them. You can configure Yahoo! Mail to automatically insert the same signature into every email you send.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Sign in to your Yahoo! Mail account. From the top navigation bar, click on "Options." You can find this on the far right-side of the screen.

  2. Step 2

    Find the "Signature" link in the "Management" column on the right side of the screen. If you do not see it, make sure "Mail" is selected in the "Options" menu at the left.

  3. Step 3

    Decide what information you want to be placed into your Yahoo! Mail signature. You can include your name, employment title, email address, mailing address, phone number, fax number or any other information you want. Some people like to include a brief quote or humorous line at the bottom of their signatures.

  4. Step 4

    Input the information into the text field. Click on "Color and Graphics" to change the font color, font size and font style of your text and to add emotions to your signature.

  5. Step 5

    Click the "Add signature to all outgoing messages" checkbox if you always want to use your signature. If you may not always want to use your signature, you can leave this unchecked and add your signature only when you want to.

  6. Step 6

    Hit the "Save" button at the bottom when you are done creating your signature.

  7. Step 7

    Add your signature manually by checking the "Use my signature" check box at the bottom of every Yahoo! Mail message. Although you will not see your signature, it will be added to the bottom of your email when it is sent.

on 2/19/2009 I only want to add my signature manually but I can't see the 'Use my signature' checkbox you speak of. Are you referring to Yahoo Mail Classic? In which case can you add a signature manually in the new version?
