OT please sign your posts
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.

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.... -- Sandy in Henderson, near Las Vegas my ISP is earthlink.net -- put sfoster1(at) in front http://home.earthlink.net/~sfoster1 AKA Dame Sandy, Minister of Education |

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. Polly in the Alabama, Mississipi, Florida or Georgia Swamp. "A&T" wrote in message link.net...

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. Julia in MN A&T wrote: Oh, I *so* agree with you, Pat! It's so difficult to remember who " might be!

I wish I could figure out how to do that in Thunderbird. I have tried over and over and it never works!!! Tricia in TX (really close to Houston) http://photos.yahoo.com/momiixii 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. -- Sally at the Seaside ~~~~~~~~~~ (uk) http://community.webshots.com/user/sallyswin |
