Whenever an email is created in Yabber that is associated with general email marketing or automated emails (admin, autoresponders etc.), an email signature is selected from a Library of signatures. This means that when a change to your signature is required, the change will be globally applied whenever that email signature is referenced. In some rare cases, the default email signature is returned to modify.
You will locate the Email Signature panels by following the 'Email & Filtering' menu in the 'Marketing' module. Panels will be returned to Create, Edit, and Review each signature. The signature panel may also be found within the 'Email' module within the 'Settings' panel, and it is also accessed whenever the signature icon is shown ().

You will initially want to create two signatures. One signature will be created for standard campaigns that will includes an unsubscribe link, and another without the unsubscribe link - the latter is often used for once-off email, such as those originating from the Referrals module. The methods of including the unsubscribe link is detailed shortly.
Creating an Email Signature
Create an email signature via the 'Create' panel. The signature created by default is manufactured by retrieving values from your default company profile, and the logo image is sourced via those uploaded in the Company Logo Manager. Give your new signature and disclaimer profile a name, modify the default values, and Save.

Example Email Disclaimer: "This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed. Please notify the sender immediately by e-mail if you have received this e-mail by mistake. If you are not the intended recipient you are notified that disclosing, copying, distributing or taking any action in reliance on the contents of this information is strictly prohibited. If you do not wish to receive these communications in future click here."
Be mindful that your aggregator will require specific text in the disclaimer. Note that it's always best to include ACL and Credit Rep details.
Adding an Unsubscribe Link into the Disclaimer
Any campaign or autoresponder you send will be required to carry an unsubscribe link by law. By default, the disclaimer text will automatically create the unsubscribe link, so it's often best to create 'outside' of the existing link.

If you choose to create an unsubscribe link yourself, you should use the %%unsubscribe%% placeholder as the HTML link (rather than a URL). The end result is pictured below:

When email campaign are sent, the placeholder is replaced by a long URL unsubscribe link.
Reviewing and Editing Signatures
You may edit any signature at any time via the 'Edit' panel or by clicking on the Edit link in the 'Review' panel. The 'Review' panel provides a full summary of each created signature.

The 'Active' toggle switch simply prevents the Signature from showing in those menus where signatures are shown.
Once any signature is created, it may be assigned to any email created in Yabber.
