Setting Outlook Client restrictions

To set Outlook Client restrictions:

• Select Prevent users from changing signature options (Outlook for Windows only): If this option is enabled, users can choose which signature to use when composing messages in Microsoft Outlook (if multiple signatures are available). However, all signature edit options will be greyed out so the signature content cannot be changed.
  
  If you have multiple accounts in Outlook, the signature options will not be disabled.
  
  OR
  
  
• Select Remove all existing signatures in Outlook and Apple Mail: If this option is enabled, any existing local signatures (that is, Microsoft Outlook signatures that have not been synchronized from Exclaimer Cloud) will be archived. This ensures that users can ONLY use signatures that are synchronized from Exclaimer Cloud.
  
  
  CAUTION! If you choose to uninstall the agent at a later date, then the users' original signatures will be reinstated as part of the uninstall process.
• Click SAVE to confirm the changes made.
