Re: Email Disclaimers

["Mclaughlin, Kevin (mclaugkl)" <mclaugkl () UCMAIL UC EDU>]

Hi:

That works as well.  There is a definite mixed camp on this issue and the best I can tell is that a lot of companies 
use them, especially in the HIPAA realm, to basically have some liability coverage (i.e. screen banners are what I 
would somewhat see as a similar area).   

However,  please don't send me a long list of reasons as to the whys and wherefores of the opinion - I value them - I 
truly do - but I have read literally thousands of differing opinions over the past 2 weeks and am a bit burned out on 
those.  lol      there seems to be about a 60-40 split with 60% being yes they are needed and 40% being no, they are 
not needed.

That being said if you want to respond that they have no use that is a good data point for me to have and I will 
compile those responses into the feedback I provide the listserv.  Please send responses directly to me if you don't 
mind.

Warm Regards,


- Kevin

What if we think they're silly and useless?  :)
