Manage Email Signatures Centrally - For All Users

I am having issues getting more than 4 signatures to show up after running sign.exe. I have noticed that when i save the settings/deployment page to have all 5 of my signatures checked, if i close and reopen the cockpit, the one listed in the middle stays unchecked. it's like it isnt saving the settings. is there a limitation to only have 4 signatures? or maybe it's a licensing thing? I am still using the eval serial key for 5 users as i am still testing. any info would be great

thank you,

raymond

You can deploy unlimited number of signatures - but you can only deploy to the number of users licensed.

As I understand your question, your Cockpit signature selections are not saved?

Are you running version 4.9.2 for both Cockpit.exe and Sign.exe?

Please ZIP your settings.mdb and send it to me for testing.

i am running both 4.9.2 and you are correct in that not all of my signatures are being saved. 4 out of 5 are. do you have an FTP i can upload this zip to?

I'd love to do that, but i don't see that button under your profile/in your post. What is your email address?

thanks!

Rename this signature and avoid ',' in the signature name;
Lantana Insurance, Ltd.

Then your settings are saved ... Smile

ahhhh so it's an issue with special characters? Can you tell me what characters are/are not allowed so i can avoid this issue in the future?

thanks!

*edit - by the way, i was able to remove that and it is now working Cool

Avoid "," and "/" in your signature name ... there may be others, but use normal Windows folder names.

In the next version there will be an automatic check for these things.
