How-to disable Roaming Signatures
Introduction
Microsoft’s Outlook feature, designed to streamline email signature management, has introduced a contentious mechanism known as “Roaming Signatures.” This functionality allows users to synchronize their email signatures across multiple devices.
However, administrators managing signatures through EWS reports that it is no longer possible after the introduction of the roaming feature. And that the new API that was promised for managing these signatures via Graph, was a non-delivery.
Further more, with the introduction of New Outlook, the roaming feature is now obsolete, and still obstructing signatures management through EWS.
A recent update (MC684213) now empowers admins to disable the feature themselves via PowerShell commands, eliminating the need for support tickets. This article explores the implications of disabling Roaming Signatures, focusing on the benefits, technical steps.
