> Replies overwrite my signature
Sometimes when I reply to emails on my iPhone the message overwrites my signature, which is long. How can I keep them separated?
It depends on whether this only happens on your iPhone, or those who receive your messages see the same problem with your replies. It’s important to find out which.
If it’s just your iPhone that’s affected, then it’s most probably because you once opted to use enlarged text for reading, which can upset spacing in this way. Sometimes this happens without users even being aware of it. Check in Settings, looking in two places: Accessibility > Display & Text Size > Larger Text, and in Display & Brightness > Text Size. Returning those controls to normal should fix this if it’s just a local problem.
If it affects recipients of your messages as well, the problem is most likely in your signature. Originally, email signatures were intended to be just a few short lines in plain text, but it’s easy in Mail to end up with several paragraphs with links and more. Blank lines also cause strange effects.
The best way to tackle this is to change your signature to something much shorter and simpler, with a maximum of five lines, none of them blank. If that resolves the problem, you should progressively expand your signature towards what you want it to be, continuing to avoid blank lines, and checking it doesn’t recur.
There are some apps to help you design signatures for Mail, such as Email Signature Pro from the App Store, or you can get someone skilled at writing HTML to design one for you.
