Well, personally I don't think it would be a good idea to do what redhat has done, but if Gerald decides to change the post policy to bounce all e-mails with such notices and disclaimers appended to them, then so be it. Other than that, this topic has already been discussed in the past (follow this thread if you really care: http://www.ethereal.com/lists/ethereal-dev/200409/msg00231.html), so nearly 6 years later, I don't really care to spend any more of my time on it. - Chris -----Original Message----- From: wireshark-users-bounces () wireshark org [mailto:wireshark-users-bounces () wireshark org] On Behalf Of Jakub Zawadzki Sent: Thursday, June 17, 2010 1:45 PM To: Community support list for Wireshark Subject: Re: [Wireshark-users] Secured way of using Wireshark On Thu, Jun 17, 2010 at 12:23:13PM -0400, Maynard, Chris wrote:
I guess you are unaware that many companies (such as the one I work for) have a policy in place on their mail servers whereby the various notices, disclaimers, etc. are automatically appended to any outgoing mail. My company has been doing this at least as far back as 2004 (http://www.ethereal.com/lists/ethereal-dev/200407/msg00427.html). At the time, I even contacted our IT group to ask that the disclaimers be removed from outgoing e-mails, particularly when they are being sent to open-source mailing lists such as this one. But as you can tell by the annoying disclaimer that will inevitably be appended to this e-mail, I was unsuccessful. As stupid as they are, these disclaimers are not likely to go away IMO.
Piece of advice from http://www.cygwin.com/ml/#disclaimer-bounce might help.
If your company servers automatically add it, either persuade your sysadmins to turn it off for the lists, post from home, or use a free web-based e-mail service. There's enough of them out there.
