How to Do a Signature in an Email
Typically, most email services provide numerous customization options to help improve the way you communicate with recipients. A standard option is the use of a digital signature. This lets you embed information such as your name, your company's name and how to contact you into your outgoing messages. You can enable this option using your email service's main properties screen.
