Sorry to dig up an old thread, but I don't think you got any feedback on this except a request to allow more than 1000char's in the sig.

Can you also allow us a choice to show images in replies or not instead of just stripping them? (or at least remove the [image] placeholder).

Thanks &

Regards,

Thomas Houseman.

Excellent, yes seems to be coming through ok and you seem to be making good progress.

In terms of image not coming through when sending. Most likely explanation is that surgeweb is trying to send as plain text (which it does by default) unless html markup is used. Just having html (and an image) in the signature does not actually trigger the automatic switch to html mode. You can manually force all newly created messages to be in html mode using the setting on the advanced settings, or clicking text->html in toolbar, or using any of the toolbar html markups.

As to stripping when replying. Yes that was intentionally programmed for the situation the original message has embedded images for signatures etc. In that situation, personally I don't want to be sending all images back in my reply so thought this was quite a nice solution. But yes I do actually need to review and implement a few things surrounding this, and suggestions most welcome.

The mailing list should not be stripping anything as far as I know.

To All,

The one thing that Thomas H, Tom C and myself have discovered is that "Reply" strips the image but leaves the [image] placeholder.

Ideas??

Hi All
Martin's drag and drop from a web page worked.
Also I set up a signature in Outlook, sent it to my Surge Web account, copied and pasted into the Signature box.

Tom,

The first thing to do in our experience is to log in, and go to Options > Preferences and pick the Advanced tab. Near the bottom of the page you will see a pull-down menu for "Message send mode:" that (probably) says "Auto". Auto doesn't work, so change it to "html" and save it. (Save is near the top of the pane and I wonder if some users miss it.)

When you go to the "General" tab and the signature block shows, it seems to depend on your browser how you can add a logo. In Safari and in Internet Explorer I was able to drag a graphic from a web page. If I dragged it from a file, Safari inserted text with the address of the graphic on the local machine - not useful - and IE drops out of surgemail completely to show the graphic.

In Firefox (Mac) the best thing I could do was click the "edit html" button and enter some html to point to a graphic on the web. (For example: <div><img src="http://www.google.com/images/logo_sm.gif" alt=""></div> if you work for Google.)

Be sure to select "Add Signature" (under the signature box) and Save. When you "Compose" the signature should show up right there (unlike the old webmail).

Martin and Larry.

Hi All
More and more of our customers are switching to Surgeweb and are happy.
As usual they want to do more and more with it.

The question is, they want to add a signature with a company logo?

How can we do this??
