I’ve got a custom form in a custom database. I would like the email signature set from the Mail Preferences of the mail file database to auto-fill upon composing this new form. How do I go about accomplishing this?
Subject: How do you add email signature to custom form?
Look in the mail template at the CoreEmailClasses Script Library. Do a find in all objects for “signature.” It looks like it grabs the signature from a profile document. If this is correct, you should be able to duplicate this on your form (assuming you have access to the user’s mail database).
If you’re working with a custom form in a custom database, pulling in the email signature automatically from the user’s Mail Preferences can be a little tricky. Out of the box, Domino doesn’t directly expose these features (like user signature retrieval) to custom forms.
One common approach is to store the signature as a rich text field in the user’s mail profile document and then use some LotusScript or formula language to fetch and insert it when the form is opened or composed.
