Email signatures are a mess, every email app handles them differently… you have to jump through hoops to set up an email signature and heaven forbid you want to roll out signatures across a small or large business, there’s no simple method of integrating the darn things. If only the likes of Apple, Mozilla and Microsoft would add the option to specify a URL for an email signature.

Signatures could live in the ‘cloud’ and you could pass variables in the http request to determine exactly how the signature should be returned. A web service could be used to serve signatures with dynamic content or you could simply place a static .txt or .html file on your web server.

Would it really be that hard to sort this out?
