Once you are in Outlook, choose Options, which is located under the Tools menu.
  Step 2:  Click Security Tab

Click the Security tab and you will be shown the screen where you can change your mail options.
  Step 3:  Activate Digital Signature

Open a Report
In the Secure Mail section, there are several options available. Choose the option that says Digitally sign all outgoing messages. Be sure you place a check mark in the box. Now whenever you write a message, your digital signature will be attached.
  Step 4:  Add During Writing Mail

Open a Report
If you are writing an e-mail and you have not set up your program to automatically digitally sign all of your messages, you still have that opportunity. Go to the Tools menu and then click Digitally sign. A check mark should now be next to those words, indicating that it's activated.
