(Travis: this message is in no way directed at you personally, it is simply a rant about those annoying disclaimers and the lawyers who love them.) As far as I'm aware there is zero legal precedent for the enforcement of those disclaimers. It's just a knee-jerk reaction by lawyers trying to say they were "responsible" in preventing confidential information from being exposed. How "responsible" is it if it's automatically added to each message? Not to mention that it's on the BOTTOM of the message! What if i would not have agreed to it if i had known about it? You can't enforce a policy on someone after the fact. That said, you are posting to a public email list, how are you supposed to know who the 'individual or entity to which it is addressed' really is? Who will it be 10 years from now? It's just a waste of space. Pardon the off-topic rant. :) Kevin ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
