A window into the soul of your correspondent (or, where harnessed to the great steampunk machine of a multinational corporation, that entity's blackened soul). his kind of disclaimer may canvass any one or more of the following subjects:

  • confidentiality
  • copyright
  • privilege (despite its protestations, almost no emails will ever be legally privileged)
  • It might not be accurate
  • It might contain viruses
  • An appeal to destroy it if sent in error.
  • Things it isn't:
    • Professional advice
    • An offer or solicitation of an offer
    • A recommendation to do anything or not do anything (Stop and think about this juicy double negative for a while: “We are not telling you not to do anything”.)
