[MlMt] No email signature for emails to specific domains

[Henry Seiden]

In my case, I use a common signature on multiple accounts for business purposes.

These are separated only by comma. They work fine applying a signature to outbound email from multiple accounts. Bill may have a good point about the curly bracket separators for wildcard addresses.

I found this in the Help Menu doc. It may be on point as to curly bracket uses. Highlighted the specific portions below:
	**Restricting Signatures**
If you need to restrict one or more signatures to one or more 	email addresses then you can use the “Address(es)” text field in the signature editor. A so-called *glob pattern* is the expected input, but you don't need to know what that is. You can provide a comma separated list of email addresses using * as a wildcard and MailMate ensures it's a glob pattern. Here is a couple of correctly formatted examples:

	mm-*@freron.com
	{personal at example.com,work at example.com}
Note that the signatures popup in the composer only displays signatures available for the currently selected “From” address. This is also useful for making sure the glob pattern works as expected.

Hope these help. Some further experimentation may be needed at your end. Unfortunately, the current manual is without an index or a well-documented as to finding details on point to an issue. I believe Benny is aware of them. YMMV.

Respectfully,

Henry Seiden
