Changing the disclaimer

[arbo80]

Hi,

My company just changed its name. I would like to modify the disclaimer for all outgoing mails to reflect the new name. What should I do?

Thanks

AB

Is there already an existing disclaimer? If so, you'll need to find out how it's done. Whether it's an event sink:

or a third party product like:

or

Thanks for the reply! The disclaimer already exists. I just want to modify it but I can't find any specific option or file for that.

As mentioned in my first reply, you'll need to find out what's adding the disclaimer. Go through the first link I provided and see if that's setup. Look for the other two pieces of software as well.

Many ways of adding a disclaimer. You can't change the existing one till you figure out how it's being added.

Thanks!! I found the solution. I was looking in the wrong spot (Microsoft Exchange Server). The disclaimer is located in my SMTP policy

I've been wondering about adding disclaimers after my signature. You can add a standard disclaimer to the bottom of all emails by default in Exchange System Manager by creating/editing an smtp policy or you need a third party tool?

In Exchange 2003, you can use an event sink (see the links above). But most find that method difficult to use, and problematic. Both of the other solutions I've mentioned above do a good job.

I've been searching the net and Exchange System Manager for info on adding a standard disclaimer using SMTP Policies. Can you explain how that's done?
