Signature Rules
For Exchange & Office 365 Email Signature

What are Rules?

Rules are the conditions that emails should meet to get signature added into email. If none of the created rules are applicable to an email, then no signature will be added to that email. You can create dynamic conditions (rules) that help in adding signatures based on situation such as keywords in subject and body text, sender address etc., instead of same signature for all mails.
