Hello! We've been having some lively
conversations here lately. I do enjoy
the various quilt topics, and some of
the off topic as well. For me, every
post would be even better if it was
signed. Quite a few are not signed
lately. When I send a "real" letter, I
put a return address on the envelope,
AND I sign the card/letter. So, I do so
here too. I just like it that way. If
you hate my suggestion, please just
ignore it and eventually it will go
away. Please do not start a major
confrontation or flame on this minor
comment.
Pat... still in Virginia, but heading to
Houston soon!!

I do like the locations... maybe I'm just slow and have to read it 100 times before I remember...
but for me remembering who is who helps when I can remember where "home" is -- doesn't have to be
specific at all... a state is just fine for US folks... and country is fine for others....

I try to remember everybody -- but I'm getting old (50 next year!) and the memory is fading fast. I
can live with that... as long as the eyesight holds out. LOL

Oh, I *so* agree with you, Pat! It's so difficult to remember who
" might be! It's relatively easy in most
newsreader programs to add a permanent signature so that it's just there
automatically.... :)

Kate,
My reason exactly, will be 70 in a couple of months. Hard to remember
stuff, but so glad to be here to try.

I wish I could figure out how to do that in Thunderbird. I have tried
over and over and it never works!!!

They boxed up all the land records and shipped them off to somewhere in
Texas to be restored, maybe. Since Katrina, we really don't know where we
are.

In the Tools menu, select "Account Settings". Find the name of the
account you use for reading news. There is a box to check for "Attach
this signature" and another box for a file name. There is a place to
choose the file you want to use for your signature. It's just a plain
text file.

Have just tested how I did it, and it worked:

1 Write how you want your siggy in a Word doc. and save as Plain Text.
(It may say you will lose the formatting on it etc. but save it that
way anyway!)
2 Click on News Account in Thunderbird.
3 Then in Accounts click on View settings for this account.
4 Attach this signature - tick the box
5 Click the Choose button
6 Find where you put the siggy in Instruction 1. Click on Open
7 Hey presto - that location is now entered in the little box and your
siggy will automatically appear when you reply to someone. It goes
under the message you are replying too, so don't forget its there!

I'm not using Thunderbird at the moment because, having been good for
5 weeks it has suddenly decided that I want 25,000 messages downloaded
every time, and somehow a superfluous heading has appeared under News
Account called News, which wont go away despite having been deleted.
Was spending too much time on sorting it, so have reverted to old
trusted Free Agent till I find the solution.
