I think that it's a carry over from when people signed paper memos when they have to have their name below the signature because the signature was unreadable. Why would I have to put my name in my email sig? It's in my email address, and I sign it too. That's twice already. Do I need a third? Do people want a third?
I just think that's it's silly when people sign their name, and right under it is their email sig with their name in it too. I don't work for the Department of Redundancy Department.
What's "standard" for email sig's where you work? Do you think that it's silly / dumb?

Signing it is personal. Email sigs qualify as letter-head.

Yeah, I don't use a sig in my email, because I end up signing it anyway. Sometimes sigs are put in automatically by the server. I love when friends send personal email from work, and it's followed by the standard disclaimer header, protecting any information that protects the company from email that may go to people that it shouldn't.
ReplyDeleteI really want a unique email signature, been trying lots of different places, but can't get any to work for me
