Can not set wallpaper for a Signature Set

[quote user="radhx"]I tried to set a wallpaper for a signature using both .gif and .jpg files.

In Edit Signature (Signature Set 1 - Internet Adderess, Formatted Content), on selecting the graphic file, the background is displayed properly.

If reopening the signature you just edited you'll find that the background image isn't permanently stored. I haven't checked the specs but it appears that the RTF format doesn't support background images as even OpenOffice didn't store a background image along with the RTF encoding, and as Pegasus Mail uses an RTF editor converting the encoding to HTML on delivery only there doesn't seem to be a way for achieving what you're looking for this way.

But maybe using a stationary message (or a template which would work for replies as well, never worked with this so I can't tell) could achieve what you're trying to do, you'd just have to remember using it whenever you want to include a backgound image.

Hi,

I tried to set a wallpaper for a signature using both .gif and .jpg files.

In Edit Signature (Signature Set 1 - Internet Adderess, Formatted Content), on selecting the graphic file, the background is displayed properly.

But on saving the signature and opening a new mail, background does not appear. Other pictures if added to signature appear properly in the new mail.

I also tried setting a wallpaper after opening a new mail. It displayed the wallpaper properly, but after sending/receiving the mail, the wallpaper was missing, though the other pictures added came through properly.

 Thanks & Regards,

Rad.
