Understanding Email Signature Character Limits for Outlook Web App (OWA)

You're working with both Outlook (desktop) and Outlook Web App (OWA) and therefore want to use the same default signature in both clients.

Issue

If your Outlook Web App (OWA) email signature is incomplete, you have reached the character limit for OWA.

With Exchange Server on-premises, Microsoft enforced an 8KB character limit in OWA email signature settings.

We have not yet seen limitations with Exchange Server online (Office 365).
