Top post:

My Outlook is not set to  automatically install a signature block.  I have a
number of different signature blocks set up and manually install one prior
to sending an email if I want a formal signature block.

I am now down to using 2 email addresses from my previous 6.  Cablevision
closed down my email accounts, after 5 1/2 years.  Closed the account in
March of 05.  I discontinued my EarthLink account last year as I was not
using dial-up while traveling.
