Exclaimer o firma para Outlook por políticas de grupo

Remove existing Outlook signatures using a Group Policy Object

Abstract

You have installed Mail Disclaimers but some of your users still have a signature applied directly by Microsoft Outlook. You want to remove their existing Outlook signatures and prevent them from setting up signatures in Microsoft Outlook in future.

Description

It is possible to disable Microsoft Outlook signatures using a Group Policy Object (GPO) by following the steps below on your Domain Controller (or another machine responsible for Group Policy configuration):
  1. Open up the Group Policy Management Console (gpmc.msc) by choosing Start, Administrative Tools, Group Policy Management. If this is not installed on your server it is available to download here.
  2. Download the appropriate version(s) of the Office Administration Template for the version of Microsoft Outlook you are running in your organisation; the downloads can be found here. Note: If you are running multiple versions of Outlook in your organisation you will need to download an Administration Template for each version.
  3. Extract the required Administrative Template(s).
  4. Create a new GPO in the domain:
    1. Select the domain.
    2. Select Action, Create a GPO in this domain, and Link it here...

  5. Right-click the newly created GPO and choose Edit.
  6. Navigate through to the Users Administrative Templates by expanding User Configuration, Policies, Administrative Templates:
  7. Select Action, Add/Remove Templates...:
  8. Select Add and navigate to where the templates for Microsoft Outlook were extracted to in step 2
    Microsoft Outlook Version File Name
    Microsoft Outlook 2003 outlk11.adm
    Microsoft Outlook 2007 outlk12.adm
    Microsoft Outlook 2010 outlk14.adm
  9. Press 'Close'
  10. Navigate through and enable the appropriate setting(s) for each version of Microsoft Outlook you use in your environment:

    • Microsoft Outlook 2003

      Expand Microsoft Office Outlook 2003, Tools | Options..., Mail Format, Signature.

    • Microsoft Outlook 2007
