I have created three different signatures for my three different email accounts. In the signature creation box, they are all fine:- when I choose each one, the correct signatuer appears in the pane below.
However, when I go into a new email message, it come up with the default email signature, which is fine, but if I change the email account to send from, the new signature does not appear. If I then change back to the default email, even that signature has now disappeared!
Any clues please?!

I'm using Outlook 2003 so I'm being somewhat vague regarding how things might be in Outlook 2010
If you go to the Mail Format section of Options, see whether it has Using Word 2010 ticked.
If you have this ticked Signatures should change automatically depending on which account you're using
No, unfortunately (for those like me who turned off the use of Word in older versions) from Outlook 2007 onwards you are forced to use Word. There is a Microsoft article about this here.
There is also an article about creating and using signatures here. In the section "Insert a signature automatically" it says: - which definitely suggests that you can do what you seem to be trying.
Unfortunately I only have Outlook 2003 at home (and 2007 at work), so I can't try this myself. My suggestion is for you to check what you have tried against the MS "how to" article and, if you are still having problems, post again here or on one of the Microsoft forums (where you might find someone who understands how this is supposed to work).
