How to Add a Signature to Emails on BlackBerry Curve
Posted on 2008 under BlackBerry Curve | 51 Comments
A signature is an automatic feature that will post any text of your choice at the end of any post or email that you write. If you would like a signature to show up at the end of your emails on your BlackBerry Curve, here is how you can do that:
First open your Messages.
Click Menu.
Choose Options.
Then choose Email Settings.
Make sure Use Auto Signature is set to Yes.
Then enter in the text of your choice.
Click Menu.
Then choose Save.
An automatic signature showing the text you chose should now show up at the end of each email you write.

I am having a problem trying to access the auto signature on my Blackberry Curve. When I follow your instructions to go into my messages, click menu, options, email settings, there is not auto signatures on that screen. Under my email settings I have “confirm delivery”, confirm read” and “send mail receipts”. Where do I locate the “auto signature”?
Thank you
LaVerne

this cannot be done from your phone. Must go to blackberry website and click on edit your email and proceed from there.

Hit multifunction Key. Next find Setup Icon. Next find Email Settings. Log In may be different than your email login. Click on your name and edit. The rest is easy. Larry

Hi LaVerne,
Sorry, I haven’t been able to work on this site in a while, but I did find an answer for you if you are still looking. I found out that many people are not seeing the auto signature option in their settings, so what you can do is go to your carriers website.
If you have a personal email account, as opposed to a corporate account then you need to go to the carriers website and edit the email settings there. There will be an option to setup a filter as well as a signature since it cannot be located in your device.
You may have been provided a webmail account by BlackBerry for AT&T and you can go there to change your settings.
I hope this information is helpful.

I am having the same problem as LaVerne. I have done what you suggested and the signature is enabled on my gmail email, nevertheless, the signature only works when I send emails from Gmail and not from my BB.

i am amazed that how could such a mistake , foolish decision they can make. in operating system 4.5 there is no MMS option . and there are no options to lock /unlock your folders niether there are any third party aplications. my request to all that never think about BlackBerry , PDA’S and windows based mobiles ,like apple , htc, and many more are betther than blackberry
thanks

The more i learn about the black berry the more i don’t like it. some thing as simple as a signature at the end of a text it can’t do. the phones you get for free when you sign up the cheapest phone will let you do it and these won’t. They suck!!

Not that I’m impressed a lot, but this is a lot more than I expected when I found a link on Digg telling that the info here is quite decent. Thanks.
p.s. Year One is already on the Internet and you can watch it for free.

aThe only way I’ve discvered to add a signature line is:
1. Go to options
2. Scroll to owner
3. Under Information type in what you want your signature line to be.
When sending a text, at the end of your comments type ” the letters “s-i-g” (no hypens) then space. Waalaa

ON YOUR MENU SELECT EMAIL SETTINGS ICON. SELECT THE EMAIL ACCOUNT YOU WANT TO CHANGE. SELECT EDIT AND SCROLL DOWN, YOU CAN THEN CHANGE THE SIGNATURE. YOU MUST DO THIS FOR EACH EMAIL ACCOUNT ON THE DEVICE.

Hi All,
I have been using the blackberry curve now for 2 months and it is WAY better than the iphone 8gb 3G. I had it for 14 months and it was terrible. It would freeze for no reason, it needed charged every day (and I am not that heavy a user). Nothing was compatible with it so the blackberry a refreshing improvement (and it does just the same). So what if it’s a bit tricky to get the signature working? At least there is enough charge to send the message at all!
Managed to set up the signature using the posts here so thanks for that. Why doesn’t the curve do it automatically? Very minor irritation.

Here’s what I do that makes it easier for me
. All I do is I go to creat new sms message, then I click on menu and go to Edit Auto Text. I then click on menu again and click New. Then I put in a letter that I don’t usually use, and after I say a message I hit return and type in that letter and push space. It works quite well actually. Soon you get into a routine 
. Hope this helps anyone.

Hi. I’m trying to figure out how many spaces should I put for my signature.. So the sig would be under what I’m saying?. Any ideas?.

is there a way to decide whether you want to use the signature when creating EACH new message? or is my only option is keeping the automatic signature activated or keep it off altogether.

2. select “Email Settings”
3. Select Mail account (Edit)
4. Go to General Option
5. Edit Signature Box
6. Save and your are done.
It works good for me.

GO to settings icon
click on “manage internet email”
click on the email account you wish to add signature
then click edit
scroll down to “signature” then add whatever you want right before “sent via Blackberry”

Hi
I am not sure if anyone is using the BB curve 8900 but if so then it is a pretty straightforward process to add a signature to an email account. All one has to do is click the Messages icon and them press the BB icon button then click Email Account Management. You will be shown all your email accounts that are linked to your BB at this point click the email account you want to Edit.
One chosen the Email account you want to modify, you click t and you will be given the option to Edit it. Hope this helps! Word of advice the Help guide on the BB is really great and easy to use!
Good luck!

Hey there just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The words in your article seem to be running off the screen in Chrome. I’m not sure if this is a format issue or something to do with internet browser compatibility but I thought I’d post to let you know. The layout look great though! Hope you get the problem resolved soon. Kudos
