In Outlook (Mac) you can set a default signature for each of your mail accounts. From the Outlook menu, click Preferences, under Email, click Signatures and then click Standard in the left hand column.  Create your custom signature in the right hand column text field.  You can add more signatures using the + sign in the left column.  After your signatures are created, you can choose them under Choose default signature for each email account that you have and whether you want the signature on new messages and replies/forwards.

To edit your signature via the web, login to bwa.dartmouth.edu Click the Settings icon in the upper right corner (it looks like a gear). In the search bar, type the word "signature" without quotes, then choose Email signature. Type your signature in the Email signature window. Be sure to place checkmarks by "Automatically include my signature on new messages that I comprose" and also by "Automatically include my signature on messages I forward or reply to". Click the Save button (upper right corner) to save your changes.

Note: If you have multiple accounts, you must set the default signature separately for each account. If you access your mail on multiple devices, you must set your signature for each device with the exception of the bwa on the web.
