As Peter noted, this is not necessarily the case -- instead, people are always
asking how to accomplish various things like this, such as adding standard
headers or footers to messages.
Note that in this day of MIME and multipart messages, attachments, digitally
signed email, encrypted email, and everything else, it is generally a very bad
idea to try to append an arbitrary block of text to any message -- even an
innocuous footer. For this reason, we ask that you consider _very_carefully_
whether such an action is needed before mangling the mail of your users.
Note that there can (infrequently) be good technical reasons for doing so.
Adding several kilobytes of incomprehensible legalese is _never_ one of these
reasons.
