Another example of a stupid, legal dept inspired, grossly overstated
disclaimer.

If the information is confidential, then why is it being sent on a known
insecure medium without encryption?

So retransmission is prohibited.  So why is it sent to a mailing list?

"delete the material from any computer"  Am I supposed to track down every
computer that this email has passed through?  No bloody chance.

Sorry, but I am getting mightily pissed off with the increasing spate of
stupidity from corporate legals.  Put the disclaimer on a web site
somewhere and then link to it; have the legal idiots never heard of
netiquette?
