Hello,

Anybody knows how to make the Notes server insert a disclaimer with outgoing emails?

Thanx.
 
The only way I can think of to do this is to make a change to the "Memo" form in the mail template. This way the disclaimer would appear at the bottom of the memo when it is created.

Haven't tried it but it sounds good in theory :)

Other members might have some other solutions......?

Hope this helps
 
Hi,

This will only work if you insert the text at the bottom of the Body field just before sending.

This guarantees that the user will not remove the disclaimer and that the text is actually sent (Notes only sends de contents of the Body field when using the default mail template).

Maybe you can also consider a third party mail management solution for this. Some anti-virus products for Domino will also allow you to do this, often with a trick.


Kind regards,

Pretty interesting suggestions. I'll try both and see what comes up.
Thanks ABO, Amazing.
 
Sorry to disagree, but changing the form will only work if you send mail to a person that has the same form design, unless you also send the design with the form (stored-form). But the recipient still has the option not to accept stored-form documents, and if the recipient does not have Notes, it is entirely useless to do so.
For sending mail outside the company, by definition that means it will not work.
The only way to do it is therefore by including in the Body field, as Dominik has indicated.
 
Edit the Memo form in the DB mtaforms.nsf and add disclaimer there (don't include carriage returns though)

This will add to SMTP mail.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Steve
