woops, forgot to more inside. Hope me?

What was the actual email about, or was the entire email the disclaimer? I never get any good disclaimers. All my emails are about the same old stuff....girls wanting to chat with me, people wanting to increase the size of my penis...same old same old.

Nah, the actual content of the email was one line: "Thanks." All the rest is just padding.

aargh!

Here's mine:

Our corporate assistant has this disclaimer on all her emaisl:

I wonder if the disclaimer is covered by the disclaimer? ZOMG, have we just broken the law???

And, may I add the following email observation?

Yes?

Good.

When I receive an email from someone, then receive an email wanting to retract the previous email, it's not really gonna work, you know? I've already read it...

I hope no one is thinking about printing out this thread.

I like this one which has been circulating the interwebs for a long time:

Any resemblance between the above views and those of my employer, my terminal, or the view out my window are purely coincidental. Any resemblance between the above and my own views is non-deterministic. The question of the existence of views in the absence of anyone to hold them is left as an exercise for the reader. The question of the existence of the reader is left as an exercise for the second god coefficient. (A discussion of non-orthogonal, non-integral polytheism is beyond the scope of this disclaimer).

I love that, qvantamon. Very, very much.

CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: This e-mail and any attachments are confidential and may be protected by legal privilege. If you are not the intended recipient, be aware that any disclosure, copying, distribution, or use of this e-mail or any attachment is prohibited. If you have received this e-mail in error, please notify the sender immediately by replying to this e-mail and delete this message from your system. Thank you.

That's the disclaimer that the mister's employer uses. The mister declines to use it on his emails (this is on something that he forwarded to me - ha!).

LOL @ qvantamon. I should send that one to the mister. I'm sure his employer wouldn't be amused tho'.

The one my company uses is huge and replete with environmental bullying, company registration, address, mobile, and a bunch of legalese... but I'm stuck with it. So, BLAME ME. I'm one of the bad people.

p.s. Outlook's default signature edit window has a really fucked-up default double-spacing issue - so it's probably not the Spanish company's fault. That's right, kids: I just blamed Microshit for making an inferior product (again).

The trick is to go into the edit mode somewhere and turn off the spacing... but it's hard to find.

Now THAT is my most hated disclaimer. It gets added to the end of every email my friend sends from work. When she was in a different position at the same company, there used to be a bunch of stuff in there about not leaving buy or sell orders in her email because they would not be executed blah blah blah...
