Also one might wonder if the act of putting the disclaimer into the message indicates an awareness of a problem or a threat and so any subsequent losses due to such threats might make it easier to prove liability of those ADDING the disclaimer under some systems of law and torts. Example: "We are adding this disclaimer because we acknowledge we aren't taking sufficient measures...." > Also, shouldn't you include in your disclaimer something > along the lines of "this email has been tampered with by a > mail transport agent, and the validity of the contents can no > longer be guaranteed"? The same issue may exist with signs saying, "For the safety of our customers: No guns allowed", in places such as Texas where firearms are generally legal to law-abiding citizens. When a criminal violates the sign, and the law, it will serve as proof that the proprietor knew there was a danger and took no effective action (metal detectors, armed guards, and body searches) to disarm the ACTUAL criminals rather than merely rendering the law-abiding defenseless. -- Herb -- ## List details at http://www.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://www.exim.org/eximwiki/
