When you use mail flow, you aren't adding a signature, you are adding a disclaimer. These are always added at the end of the message; Exchange doesn't split the message to insert it within the message, it just stamps it on at the end.We are using Office 365 and recently created a signature rule in mail flow. When I send a new message, the signature is at the end of the message. But when I reply, it is at the bottom of the whole conversation.
You have two choices for a company-wide signature: push out the signature files using a logon script or use a centrally managed signature solution from CodeTwo,
Exclaimer, or others. The advantage of the commercial products is that all messages, even those sent using Outlook on the web or using smartphones, will have the signature added. These programs make it easier to edit the signatures and apply the changes to everyone.Tools in the Spotlight
