"Adding Text to Messages To append text, such as a disclaimer, to all outbound mail, you create a string value called OutboundAppend and set the value of OutboundAppend to contain the text you want to add to the end of your SMTP mail. If you want to add formatting to the text, you must use Rich Text Format (RTF) commands. For RTF codes, see the Microsoft article "WD: Rich Text Format (RTF) Specification 1.5 Appnote (GC0165)" at http://support.microsoft.com/ support/kb/articles/q86/9/99.asp contains a link to GC0165.exe, which contains the full RTF specification.
A backslash (\) signals the start of a formatting string, and for this simple RTF example, a space signals the end. You must include a single-space between the RTF string and the text that it's controlling. For example, if you include the RTF string \par\bThis message will self-destruct in 5 seconds\b0 and don't include a space between the bold on command (\b) and the word This, the system interprets \bThis as a formatting command. Because \bThis isn't a valid command, the system ignores these characters, and the resulting text is message will self-destruct in 5 seconds."
