Signature File Use

What is a signature line?  Signature files or “sig files” are the closing blurbs automatically appended to the end of each e-mail that you send.  Most folks have more than one so they can choose how to end their e-mails based on topic and level of formality required.

Sigs can denote one’s Web site address, contact information or other personalized comments and are meant to be a brief identifier. Not a manifesto or long sale-pitch! Signature files can also include your commonly used sign-offs and your name so you don’t have to type those with every e-mail.

Sigs are a great way to save time and an opportunity to wrap up your e-mail with the intended tone and purpose.  I have an article on the topic about the appropriate use of Signature Files or Sig Files for your review:
