Disclaimer Text

[trig]

Is it possible to integrate an altermime type solution so that Disclaimer Text would be displayed on all outbound email or does Scalix have the ability to do this automatically?

Regards,

Scalix does not have the native ability to do this. For details on what can be done see the sendmail FAQ at http://www.sendmail.org/faq/section3.html#3.35

This gives a good explanation why it's not as easy as people would imagine.

Cheers

Dave.

Hi Dave,

I don't think I will attempt this, need to know C from what the FAQ says, the only thing I know about C is the follows B and preceeds D :lol: [/quote]

Hi Trig and Dave,

The sendmail faq makes this sound much more difficult than it actually is. I found an easy way to add the disclaimer text using mimedefang milter from http://www.mimedefang.org/.

To add the disclaimer, follow the instructions to install mimedefang and put the following function in /etc/mail/mimedefang-filter. This will add the disclaimer text to plaintext and html emails.

Code: Select all

sub filter_end
{
        my($entity) = @_;
        if ( $Sender =~ /\b(.*)\@yourdomain.net\b/ )
        {
                append_text_boilerplate($entity,
                "Disclaimer text.....", 0);
                append_html_boilerplate($entity,
                "Disclaimer text.....", 0);
        }
}

Does this have a problem with PGP signed messages or messages with a different character set ?

Cheers

I can not configure the mimedefang, this is not run correctly and I lose the emails when I send them to the Internet.
Where could I find the Installation and Configuration Manual?
I have Centos 5 and Scalix 11.4. I need only to include one disclaimer for all emails.

Thanks
