Email signing

[Samuel Luxford-Watts]

Hi all,

Ok - I work for a legal firm so I guess I should have guessed that this
subject would come back to haunt me!

Using MS is it possible to:

1. sign all outgoing emails with a default signature (disclaimer) except if
a specific string is added to either the end of the subject line or to the
email body.

2. Have the email signature at the start of the email body and not the end.
I am not sure if you are aware but a lot of lawyers are now saying that a
confidentiality disclaimer appended to an email is not legally binding
unless you refer to it at the start of the email BEFORE the reader has a
chance to read the main text.

If anyone has any ideas on the first point I would love to hear them!

Sam
