Signature d'entreprise
Présentation
Lors de l'insertion des destinataires, si des signatures d'entreprises sont paramétrées et correspondent aux critères d'expéditeurs et destinataires pour l'email, alors un encadré informe de l'ajout d'une signature et présente celle-ci :

Cela permet à l'utilisateur de contrôler quelle est la signature utilisée, dans le cas où plusieurs signatures sont paramétrées et pourraient lui correspondre (s'il est membre de plusieurs groupes par exemple ou si une signature événementielle temporaire est mise en place).
Placement de la signature
La signature est placée par défaut à la toute fin du message. Néanmoins, certains paramétrages permettent d'optimiser ce placement.
Corporate signatures
Introduction
When you add recipients in the "To" box, if corporate signatures have been configured and match the message's senders and recipients criteria, a warning message will pop up telling you about the signature that will be added:

This allows you to control which signature is used in the event that several matching signatures have been configured (if you belong to several groups, for instance, or if a temporary event signature is active).
Signature placement
By default, the signature is added at the very end of the message. Some settings allow you to modify this as appropriate.
If the signature's manager has enabled the option allowing users to place the signature, the string Si le gestionnaire de la signature a activé l'option permettant à l'utilisateur de placer la signature, la chaîne "--X-BM-SIGNATURE–" apparaît là où la signature apparaîtra. Cette information est intéressante en particulier lors d'une réponse à un fil de discussion :

Ainsi, l'utilisateur peut déplacer la signature en déplaçant simplement cette chaine de façon simple :
- sélectionner/déplacer
- ou couper/coller
- ou supprimer/réécrire.
is shown where the signature will appear. This is particularly useful when you're replying to a thread of messages:

You can therefore move the signature simply by moving this string with:
- select/move
- or cut/paste
- or delete/write again.

In order to streamline conversations with multiple replies, previous instances of the signature in the message thread will be deleted automatically by the system. Note that this option is not the default behaviour, it must therefore be enabled by the administrator |

Afin d'épurer les discussions lors de multiples échanges de réponses, les versions précédentes de la signature de l'utilisateur dans le fil des messages pourront être supprimées automatiquement par le système. Il s'agit là d'une option qui doit être activée par l'administrateur et non d'un comportement par défaut systématique. |
