Re: Confidentiality Statement: Emails

["F.M. Taylor" <fmtaylor () PURDUE EDU>]

A good discussion about e-mail disclaimers

http://goldmark.org/jeff/stupid-disclaimers/

While I prefer:

IMPORTANT: This email is intended for the use of the individual addressee(s) 
named above and may contain information that is confidential, privileged or 
unsuitable for overly sensitive persons with low self-esteem, no sense of 
humour or irrational religious beliefs. If you are not the intended 
recipient, any dissemination, distribution or copying of this email is not 
authorized (either explicitly or implicitly) and constitutes an irritating 
social faux pas.

Unless the word absquatulation has been used in its correct context somewhere 
other than in this warning, it does not have any legal or no grammatical use 
and may be ignored. No animals were harmed in the transmission of this email, 
although the kelpie next door is living on borrowed time, let me tell you. 
Those of you with an overwhelming fear of the unknown will be gratified to 
learn that there is no hidden message revealed by reading this warning 
backwards, so just ignore that Alert Notice from Microsoft.

However, by pouring a complete circle of salt around yourself and your 
computer you can ensure that no harm befalls you and your pets. If you have 
received this email in error, please add some nutmeg and egg whites, whisk 
and place in a warm oven for 40 minutes.
