I have heard through the "grapevine" that the signature handling has been enhanced in the forthcoming release of 8.5.1.

I'd really like to know what the enhancements include before proceeding down the customization path, only to find my requirements have already been considered.

We are facing the same situation as many others out there - We have a central signature management system that creates a highly customized HTML file for each user when they log in, and drops that onto their local client. Thereafter, if their details or the corporate design changes, those changes are automatically reflected in their personal HTML signature file.

As demonstrated in this example post (http://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/nd85forum.nsf/5f27803bba85d8e285256bf10054620d/cbb3904c9ec1381e85257546005313af?OpenDocument) and subsequent discussion, we are facing considerable development to overcome the new signature handling logic inherent in the 8.5 mail template to achieve the same results.

Before even thinking of heading in that direction, I'd sure like to know if HTML files are going to be supported (and if so, how they will be handled) in the upcoming release.

Cheers!
