Please send me an instruction.

Hello,

I'm trying to set up a signature in Thunderbird today. It works great when I just compose and send a message. The signature looks kind of weird on my side before it sends - It outlines the boxes separating the individual HTML components in red - but looks perfect to the recipient.

The problem happens if I copy and paste and cells into the message body. Then the red outlines of my composition signature turn grey - and the recipient also sees those red lines. It doesn't happen if I paste the cells without formatting, but that's not an option for my work.

I have tried setting up the HTML signature with the HTML code, and as a file attachment, and also just pasting it into the signature box. The problem occurs the same way in all cases.

It feels as if as soon as I add a table to the email, it wants my signature to also be a table. Please help!

Thank you,

Sean

Hello! I am running Thunderbird 102 with the Tools > Settings > General > Language & Appearance Default font set to Alef, a Hebrew font on my PC. However, when opening a new Write window and typing in Hebrew, the font displayed is definitely not Alef, even after I select it and set it to Alef. It looks like Times New Roman or Book Antiqua, but I am not sure. I have tried View > Repair Text Encoding but it does not seem to change anything. Any assistance you may care to provide will be appreciated. Thanks!

Is there a way to write my own HTML signature block without having to contend with T-bird's moz-class wrappers' rigid assumptions in order to display what I need?

Yes, I can do what I want using T-bird templates, but I'd rather be able to simply press "Write" or "Reply" and have my signature block(s) appear the way I need them to.

Here's what I have:

In Account Settings ->Manage Identities -> Composition & Addressing I've set -Automatically quote the original message when replying -When quoting "start my reply above the quote" -And "place my signature below my reply (above the quote)"

(This is the aesthetic I want, whether or not it's a "standard email convention" hard-coded into T-bird)

The existing moz-class behaviors are:

1. When initiating a message with "Write": The "-- " appears as the first line the signature block text The signature block text follows as expected. (This is OK) Adding a "BR" tag at the end created a blank line between the signature block and the quoted text worked as expected. (OK)

2. Replying to a message using "Reply": The signature block appears _WITHOUT_ the "-- " and the quoted text follows my signature block as expected. (NOT OK)

Adding a "-- " to the HTML code cause the "-- " to appear _as expected_ as the first line of the signature block. (This worked as expected: The "-- " was put back as the first line of the signature block). (OK)

The added "BR" tag (as above) continued to work as expected to create a blank line between the signature block and the quoted message text. (OK)

4. BUT-- when creating a message with "Write" button, using the _same_ signature file as above produced two lines of "-- " before the signature block text. (NOT OK)

The "BR" tag at the end continued to work as expected.

What I Want:

I'd like to disable T-bird's wrapper HTML/CSS code and simply be able to create my own simple HTML instead. I'd also like to still be able to add the active email and URL link of to my signature block without having to contend with all T-bird's hidden assumptions.

At least in MS Word one can turn off Microsoft's annoying assumptions of what users want. The same should be possible in T-birds HTML signature block.

Attached: JPEG image of one of my active html/t-bird signature files.

Possible?

Thank you for your help!

I had to leave Thunderbird because every time I try and create a customized signature, as much as Thunderbird excels in that area, the image storage drops the filename's path every time.

Example:

image loaded: http://rich.allcorn.us/files/headshot.png

when I go back to it: headshot.jpg

It forgets the path, so the file doesn't show up in the eMail. I purposefully put it "on the web" so it could be accessed from anywhere!

When is Thunderbird going to fix this so I can leave Apple's mail program and go back to Thunderbird?
