Outlook Signature:
Now a day, it is a common requirement from company to have a corporate outlook signature with standard format across the board.
But it is not common and straight forward to create outlook signature for system administrator in hybrid IT infrastructure.
Here I have spent some time to create outlook signature for my current company.
This outlook signature has been implement with VB script and Group policy. This vb script you can assign to OU basis or also can assign to root level of active directory.
You definitely spend some if you want to add, modify or delete some fields from this script. But it is not difficulty if you have some basic understanding of AD Schema.
When you will run outlook signature script will create OutlookSignature folder on following location.
If you will run this scrip on your local workstation, will create folder under below path
C:\Documents and Settings\rparikh\Application Data\Microsoft\OutlookSingature
And if you are looking to create outlook signature for AD based users, it will create under below path ( roaming profile path )
\\fileserver\home\%username%\Documents and Settings\rparikh\Application Data\Microsoft\OutlookSingature
This script will create six different files under above directory.
Three for new email signature and three for reply email signature including one for .HTML format, one for .RTF format and one for .TXT format
File names should be as below
usernameOutlookSignature.html
usernameOutlookSignature.rtf
usernameOutlookSignature.txt
ReplyusernameOutlookSignature.html
ReplyusernameOutlookSignature.rtf
ReplyusernameOutlookSignature.txt
This signature is compatible with Outlook 2003 or Outlook 2007. Below attached script is compatible with outlook 2003. If you want apply this script to outlook 2007, you need to change value of “Office\11.0” to “Office\12.0” on two different location.
In future, when new version of Office will introduce, you just need to change above location of new version of office.
