And this:

Basic upshot, if you really really have to try the below method.
Disclaimer is still in the email (whether someone read it or not is
pointless), lawyers will still be happy. But it's not pissing off
everyone, not making you look stupid and most importantly doesn't fuck
things up so much.

The Merely Silly way
     The mailhub puts the disclaimer (or a pointer to a web-page 
containing the disclaimer) in the message headers. This does not alter 
the content or structure of the message and would from a mail managers 
point of view be the best solution.


     Problems:


        1. Most mail clients do not display the headers by default. 
Hence no one will see the disclaimer.
