Got 1 domain (NT4), 1 site holds the Exchange 5.5 Bridgehead server with the Internet mail connector on also on this site are 2 other 5.5 servers linked via X400\mta to bridgehead server. With 6 other remote NT4\5.5 sites all connecting via X400\MTA to the Bridgehead server.
My question(s) is;

If I add the Imsext.dll to the internet mail connector 5.5 Bridgehead server will this add text to all mail when configured passing through it(depending on what registry entries I edit\enter).

or

Will I have to replace all the X400 connectors\MTA in the domain with the internet mail connector to\from remote sites and add the Imsext.dll to each 5.5 server to enable domain wide usage of this extension. If so would the internet mail connectors on remote sites connect\be routed straight to the bridgehead server or to our ISP\firewall
 
toastfrenzy, I'm a little confused about your description of your Exchange organisation. Are you using the word 'site' to mean the physical location? This is unhelpful in Exchange 5.5 org terms, a site is a collection of servers that talk to each other via RPC. As you mention X.400 and MTA in the same phrase, I assume you have multiple downstream sites that are connected back to the central hub site via X.400 site connectors? If this is so, and you have your IMS installed on a server in your hubsite, then all your servers (no matter which Exchange site they are in) are all using your IMS on the hub site server to send mail to and from the Internet.

If this description is indeed what you have, then you can do what you want by adding the extention to the central IMS, and everyone's external outbound email will have the disclaimer on it.
