when i originate an email, the signature with the hyperlink
sends and is functional. when i reply or forward, the font
changes, the spacing changes, and the hypertext link
becomes non-functioning. what am in doing wrong? i am using
the same auto-signature for both...
 
You're probably replying to a message that was sent to you in plain text.
Outlook assumes that worst case scenario - that the sender can't read HTML -
so you reply is in plain text.

If you change it to HTML, it won't help because it'll look to the recipient
just like it looks to you when it's wrong. In fact, the recipient may not
even be able to read the reply.

You'll notice that newsgroup messages are plain text and if you try to send
one with HTML, it give you a warning message about people possibly being
unable to view your message (assuming you haven't turned off the message
after seeing it the first time). Newsgroups are even further behind than
email in terms of recognizing HTML code.

Unfortunately, not everyone uses Outlook or something equally functional.
Until they catch up, we have to deal with them as best we can.
