VBS Outlook 2010 Autosignature and Disable

    Hi,

    So in work our Domain has now moved to Office 2010 and the glorious ADMX admin templates. (**********'s)

    So my script works great and it adds everyone’s signature to the default and all is good.

    The only problem is I want to disable the button that allows them to change it.
    Sure if refreshes at every login so the changes dont stick but I want the button to be gone.
    I have tried VBS but I can’t find a way, I did do it by GPO but it then doesn’t allow the script to even enter a sig so that’s no good.

    Just wondering if anyone else is uning a different method.

    I have added my script for anyone to use if they so wish. Should work on any version of outlook.


    1Love
