Keep company-wide email signatures uniform and simple with domain footers, another feature built into Backstage!
Domain footers allow your company to standardize the format and appearance of email signatures by appending the same footer (or signature) to the end of all outgoing emails. Domain footers can be formatted in plaintext for basic use, or in HTML for coloured text, highlighted text, hyperlinks, various font sizes, and images. When a domain footer is created, user-specific fields can be defined such as <full name> and <job title> (see end of article for full list of possible fields). Upon sending an email, these fields are filled with the corresponding info for the sender.
For example, here is the defined format for a domain footer:
