Log on with a test user on Windows with Classic Outlook and Word. Running this on your primary account will overwrite signatures named "Formal" or "Informal" unless you use Simulation Mode, which is described in step 3.
Simulation Mode also allows you to run this Quickstart guide on Linux and macOS, or when you do not have Classic Outlook for Windows at hand.
Trust software signed with ExplicIT Consulting's certificate - all included PS1 and DLL files are signed with this certificate.
If needed, allow execution and library loading from the TEMP folder.
☁️
Create Entra ID app for Exchange Online
Follow the instructions in .\config\default graph config.ps1 for manual setup or have a "Global Administrator" or "Application Administrator" run the provided PowerShell command.
For national or sovereign clouds, add the CloudEnvironment parameter.
Check the required permissions in advance: You can find all the information you need about usage in the files themselves as well as in the chapter Security considerations.
powershell.exe-NoExit -File "c:\test\Set-OutlookSignatures.ps1"-GraphOnly true-GraphClientId "<Entra ID app client ID>"
In pure on-premises environments, remove the GraphOnly and GraphClientId parameters. For national or sovereign clouds, add the CloudEnvironment parameter.
💡
Pro-Tip: Start Risk-Free with Simulation Mode
If you lack Classic Outlook for Windows or want a zero-impact trial of the software, use Simulation Mode: This mode creates the exact signatures for the simulated user as files on your disk, without modifying Outlook — the perfect way to verify your configuration without changing any system settings.
Just add the parameters -SimulateUser a@example.com -SimulateMailboxes a@example.com and see the results in your Documents\Outlook Signatures folder.

End Set-OutlookSignatures
You now find three new signatures in Classic Outlook for Windows (or the Simulation Mode output folder), based on the included sample templates, the sample configuration, and the attributes of your own test user:
"Formal" is ideal for new emails to external recipients.
"Informal" is great for replies and forwards and for internal emails.
"Test all default replacement variables" gives you an overview of the integrated placeholders and a glimpse of what is possible for images and banners, phone number and address formatting. It is a showcase template containing all default replacement variables and several user account pictures, so converting it to a signature takes longer than for the other sample templates.
The included sample configuration contains more signature examples, but the first run usually creates only these three. Other sample signatures are bound to specific groups, mailboxes, email addresses, or delegation scenarios and are only created when the current user and mailbox context match those rules.
🎉
Quickstart complete!
You have now generated your first signatures and your environment is ready for customization.
The following sections show what the included sample templates create and how to use your own templates for your organization.
The following examples are actual HTML signature files generated from the included sample templates and our demo environment.
When you use the same templates in your own environment, the signature content is based on your test mailboxes: names, job titles, account pictures, email addresses, phone numbers, postal addresses, and delegation information.
Let's assume Mr. Bobby Busy works as a secretary in the Office of the Executive Board of VistaVox. He has his own personal mailbox, sends mail on behalf of the CEO, Ms. Alex Alien, and can send as the Exec Board Office shared mailbox.
Company rules define that signatures must not only contain information about the mailbox sent from, but also about the real sender. With the default sample templates and configuration, this can yield the following variants automatically:
Why did the Quickstart create only three signatures?
The included sample configuration contains more examples than a typical first run creates. Some sample signatures are bound to specific groups, mailboxes, email addresses, or delegation scenarios. They are only created when the current user and mailbox context match those rules. Explore it in the INI editor for simple explanations of each setting.
Formal: Full signature for the personal mailbox of Bobby Busy - or yours
Informal: Short signature for personal mailbox (internal communication, external thread follow-ups)
Test all default replacement variables: Shows all placeholders but also account pictures, conditional banners, QR codes and more
Formal Delegate alex.alien: Full signature for when Bobby sends on behalf of the CEO, Ms. Alex Alien
Formal executiveboard.office: Full signature for when Bobby sends as the Executive Board Office shared mailbox
Informal Delegate alex.alien: Short signature for when Bobby sends on behalf of the CEO, Ms. Alex Alien (internal communication, external thread follow-ups)
Informal executiveboard.office: Short signature for when Bobby sends as the Executive Board Office shared mailbox (internal communication, external thread follow-ups)
Now that you have seen what the included samples can generate, it is time to use your own templates.
Copy .\sample templates to a new folder and start editing. We recommend following our folder structure recommendation to make future updates easier.
Control who gets which signature by defining template assignments in the INI file. Assign templates to mailboxes, groups, email addresses, or attributes, generate multiple variants from one template, and define defaults for new emails, replies, and forwards.
The sample file .\sample templates\Signatures DOCX\_Signatures.ini demonstrates standard and advanced assignment scenarios, including denied assignments, template reuse, Send-As/Send-on-Behalf/Boss-Secretary delegates, and time-based rules. Explore the sample configuration in the INI editor for simple explanations of each setting.
Many companies are fully covered by the free and open-source Set-OutlookSignatures. If your organization needs additional automation, broader client support, and centralized management capabilities, the Benefactor Circle add-on enhances Set-OutlookSignatures with great additional possibilities.
It enables scenarios such as cross-platform Outlook support, centralized deployment without software on each device, time-controlled campaigns, shared mailbox and delegation handling, out-of-office replies, signature cleanup and third-party client support.
