I want to forward a mail to another person, as the ine sending the mail, but with a different signature as in an newly written mail out of Zammad.

Why would that signature be different? What is the value of having a seperate Signature when you forward, instead of reply?

The first value will be to be able to choose if a signature appears or not, when a mail is forwarded.
The second value will be to be able to choose which signature is needed in which case, because we use more than one signatures.

Because we have different products and different departments and it depends who has to receive which signature.

Why are departments not divided? The same could be done for products as well.
