Set a different Signature for replies
2006-11-22 • Applescript
A request on the newsgroups prompted me to write a script I have been meaning to write for a long time. You see, the Corporate Identity rules at my place of work require that I have a lengthy signature appended to each email I send out. However, if i am replying to a mail from someone, they don't need to see the same 10 lines every time. Now some mail clients (like Outlook) allow you to set a different signature for original mails and for replies, but Entourage does not. this script will fix that. It will, if you set up a repeating schedule to run the script once per minute, check for a reply being written and change the signature accordingly. Full details on setting up this schedule are included in the script's readMe file.

The script is called "Set Sig for Reply" and is available from my script's page.
