Signature design
Minimalist email signature: what to keep and what to cut
- Keep
Name, role, and company. Email, phone, and the website. Three social icons. - Cut
A banner, a large portrait, a disclaimer longer than the mail, a second logo, and a tagline. - Why
The short footer stays smaller than the reply, and it still fits a phone. A portrait and a banner are covered in email signature size.

Questions
What belongs in a minimalist email signature?
Name, role, company, and a way to write back: email, phone, and the website. Three social icons are enough.
Why not a large signature?
A large footer repeats under every reply, until it is taller than the new sentence. The short one stays out of the way and still fits a phone.
