What am I missing.

If you can make Word or Outlook format it correctly once, you could always save that version as your signature. (Which would be kind of a PITA for emails you wanted to sign differently, but possibly less of one than correcting Word's capitalization every time.)

dcp, have you looked at a Centro or a Treo? They don't have wifi, but they do have (cellular) web access and run PalmOS.

I don't think I'm quite thankful enough to make that switch worth it. I just have my sig set up as my contact info. I think I may have also added a V-card to it while I was futzing around with it. Still, it has no graphics, I'm not sending on patterned background, so I consider myself tidily within business-appropriate grounds.

I'm admittedly snotty, but I don't think there should be much embellishment in business emails. I want enough formatting to enhance data transmission and that's about it.

ita ... is "ita" in AutoCorrect for some other word? Possibly that's causing it to capitalise the "i".

Also, re replacing your desktop system: does it have to be a brand name PC? Couldn't you buy the parts individually, and build it yourself? Sure it might not be quite as cheap but at least you get exactly what you want in terms of case/psu, vid card, cpu, etc., etc..

Doesn't it allow mutlitple signatures? Courier (FKA Calypso) lets me have as many as I want, and lets me choose which one to use via a pulldown menu.

Nope. And it's in the dictionary, and Ita is AutoCorrected to ita. Sometimes I hate being helped.

I'll toss around the idea of making my own PC. It's been a while since I got my hands dirty.

Bah. Here I am, on my broken MacBook, because the internet access on my Mac Mini is frelled. About 6 or 9 months ago, Comcast had to come out and reinstall my internet. The guy had me run some special Comcast software on my Mini to activate my account. (No idea what it was.) Anyway, it didn't work, but we got the connection set up the normal way. But now, everything on the internet I try to get to gets redirected to Comcast. Every web page, every URL I ping ends up at the same place. I checked all the obvious network settings but everything looks normal. Reboot didn't help. So I guess there's some Comcast application doing this.

Huh, I should check running processes, huh?

It's a first-generation Mini (Power PC) running 10.4.something....

eta: Bah. It's a known issue with Comcast software on a Mac. Requires IE 5 (no really) to run their stupid software. Which is why it never worked for me. Still haven't figured out how to get it off....

ita, could it be capitalizing the "i" as the beginning of a sentence or paragraph?

That's what I think it is doing. I just want to know how to turn it off.

Could there be something in "autoformat" or "autoformat as you type" that causes this to happen?
