when any user logs in remotely, they lose their email signature setting and
their default printer.
if they are changed in the remote desktop connection, they are reset when
the user logs in locally and vice versa.
the terminal services profile doesn't seem to make any difference.
we are running windows XP Pro clients and a 2003 terminal server. exchange
2003 email server.
Any help much appreciated

Do the users have a separate user profile and TS-specific user
profile, pointing to 2 different locations?

No, I have experimented with the TS profiles to no avail, most of the users
have no specific profile path for TS.  They all have a roaming profiles path.
and at the moment two have the same path for each. all the users have the
same problem.

That's your problem, then.
Configure a user profile and a TS-specific user profile for all
users, and make sure that it points to 2 different locations,
something like:

\\server\profiles\%username%
\\server\TSprofiles\%username%
