Open Apple Mail and go back to Preferences Signatures.If you have images in your signature, they will will not show here in the preview, but they will show in the real signature if the image source location is valid. To test that it is working correctly, simply compose a new email using the account you associated this signature with in step 2, and set the signature (right side of screen) to. Feb 03, 2016 From the Mac Mail app, create a new email message – this is simply for the sake of creating the HTML signature and it won’t be sent In the body of the email, type out your desired signature and style it as necessary – bold, font sizes, italics, phone number, links to websites or social profiles, etc (note that typing out links in modern. Looking for Catalina instructions? There are plenty of tutorials online to create an HTML signature in Apple Mail with older versions of macOS/OS X. You can even find one of my other tutorials on how to add HTML Signatures in Lion, Mountain Lion, iOS 7, Mavericks, Yosemite, El Capitan, Sierra, or High Sierra.However, the process has changed ever so slightly for the new macOS Mojave (10.14).

Keep in mind that there's a large population out there that can not or will not read your HTML signature (such as me). Therefore, if you include things in your 'HTML Email Signature' that aren't also in your plain text signature, they won't be seen.
HTML is not email. Please keep HTML in web pages, and leave email as plain text.

I'm not a fan of html only mail because some readers don't display it properly. But I'm not against html email in general. There's nothign wrong with using basic html to format a document to make it appear and read nicer. I'd rather it not be loaded with references to many images and god forbid flash or schlockwave, but that's for another time.
I don't agree the email should be plain text only. I don't have to make mail I send via the USPS plain text only. I can use colored pens, calligraphy, individually cut out letters pasted on, whatever. Using formatted text is a problem for CLI based readers, though. Mail clients need to provide a good alternative mime part that is individually editable (if necessary) for plain text users.

Both views are valid, but I think the point of keeping email plain-text only is that to this day the number one broadband-sucking use of the internet(s) is (drum roll): email.

I can't stand waiting for an email to download only to find that it took longer because my stupid COO thought it was cool to have his photo as part of his signature, which incidentally was a scan of his real signature. Blargh.

Power corrupts. PowerPoint corrupts absolutely.
If you're unable to say to me what you need to say to me without using plain text, don't bother sending me email, because you're lame as a communicator. Power corrupts. PowerPoint corrupts absolutely.
Really. Plain text works. If it takes more than that, it's an ad, and I don't need it from you. That's why many people filter HTML email: because it means the sender is lame.
Now, on a web board, I may choose to add links to my home page, but that's because the web is hyperlinked. Email is not, and should not be.
nobody really cares if you prefer plain text or not, plain text is being phased out, not all html is ads its only a matter of time before plain text is a thing of the past then you'll be forced to look at advertisements lol
plain text is boring! and you sound boring! HTML! HTML!
Html Signature Os X Mail
In addition to the previous comment, with which I wholeheartedly agree, keep in mind that this tip really should have been marked 10.4-only, as Safari 1.3 can't save web archives....
This hint is set as member's only.
Cut and paste also works fine for signatures. You can paste html or graphics into the signature box. You don't have to go to all the trouble of gaming the system.
Does it?
When I try it it will paste it into the signature text field (in the preferences dialog) but when I try to use the signature it is blank.
What am I doing wrong???

cut and paste does not seem to work. just uses the html code for my signature.. sees it as plain text
I never understand those HTML-Mail haters.
To format a nice Mail with pictures and links (and i don't mean those http://www.macosxhints.com/comment.php?sid=20050706181449478&pid=0&type=article kind of links) is just better.
I'm nat afraid of some spooky kind of Windows-trapped-E-mail-included-wonderwhat-mail-viruses.
Anyway, thanks for the hint, I like it! : )
BTW: This text is HTML Formatted! ; )

Anybody know how to make Apple Mail's View>Message>Plain Text Alternative option the default for all applicable incoming email messages?
Oops! Found it!

to reduce the size of html-mails it would be super-nice if only links to pictures etc. could be included; so I mean you only send the html code which links to a picture on a web server.
Would that work? Would the one who receives the mail actually see the picture?
And, how would such a html-link-signature be done in mail.app?

You're exactly right. I'm a multimedia puke specifically for an energy education department at a local college. We send out industry related newsletters and program offerings via e-mail to related individuals & companies that request to get this info via third party energy co-op sort of group.
The last one we sent was to 80,000 addresses; they're all HTML with a text alternative for those that prefer it, and no files are actually sent to the recipient. All images, style sheets etc, are published to an external web server that feeds them to what is essentially nothing more than an E-mail of html code. If you get any of the Apple HTML e-mails change the view of a message to raw source and you'll see they do the same thing.
For those that have taken it upon themselves to decree that e-mail should be text only - if you've reached a point in your life where non-text only e-mail is what drives you crazy - switch to decaf and lose one of your monthly online porn memberships - it'll more than pay for BROADBAND!

Mac Mail Signature Html
For anyone having trouble getting this to work - your message body must have some styled text (rich text) in it for the HTML sig to be attached. You can even do a space char and embolden that and it will work. This was giving me a lot of grief - I was sending myself test msgs trying to get it to work and it would never work - because I was sending myself blank msgs. Once I threw in a styled char into the msg body it started working perfectly.
Mac Mail Signature Disappearing
Is this for only 10.4 ? I cannot seem to get this to work with 10.3 (OS). Just the HTML code is visible - sent numerous test messages to no avail.

Plain text may be boring, but since a lot of spammers now use HTML, Javascript and images to try to conceal the fact that they're sending spam, a lot of mail readers block HTML, especially if it contains scripts or images. Your pretty mail may not be going anywhere. If it matters.
Mac Mail Signature Not Working
Thanks for the tipp! It's really useful as I have to use a HTML signature (company policy).
