Questions
Why does my Outlook signature look different?
Outlook can adjust fonts and spacing. Use simple tables and inline styles, then test-send.
Can Outlook mobile use the desktop signature?
Mobile apps have separate signature settings and may support simpler text formatting.
Should I include my email address?
It is optional because recipients already have it; a phone number and website are often more useful.
