We are announcing new options for the Azure-based email signature portal and 'classic' end of support. The 'classic' version got the end of support on 31 Dec 2018. It's time to upgrade. The Azure-based web portal is ready for Microsoft 365, Exchange on-premises and Google Workspace environments. It's incredible how much and how rapidly technology evolves. We want to thank our 'classic' customers and will ensure we support our customers in getting ready for the future and taking maximum advantage of today's technologies.
You will transition smoothly from 'classic' to the Azure-based web portal.
- For instance, it's possible to run the Azure-based web portal and 'classic' concurrently as you onboard pilot users and prepare for launch.

- Explore the Azure-based web portal.
We launched the web portal in 2013 (Microsoft Azure Cloud). Before 2013, we did everything with IT on-premises.
We wanted to find a way to allow IT to hand off administration to the marketing/communications dept. (No workload in IT).
We did this by creating a browser-based user-friendly web portal with role-based login capability.
Now, IT is only involved during the initial setup (45 min.).
Marketing/communications dept. are now self-managed, and if they need help, we assist directly (chat and online training) without any workload in IT.
1. How to request your login
- Keep 'classic' running (it can run together with the Azure-based web portal as you add pilot users).
- Schedule an intro meeting, submit a support ticket, and request your Xink login.

7. How to stop 'classic' updates
- Stop executing Sign.exe during domain login (typically found in NETLOGON share).
- When you move to Microsoft 365, you can uninstall eMailSignature (found in add/remove programs) and delete the SQL database (default DB name is eMailSignature).
