Hmm... I'm not the addressee.  And you might want to ask your legal eagles
if they think this disclaimer will count for much in court if you blindly stick it
on ALL mail, including posting to a world-wide mailing list.

And since I'm not the addressee....

Delete it? Hmm.. not as simple as that.  Your mail happened to arrive
before our backups ran, so it's out on tape as well.  Please specify how
much you are willing to pay to avoid another Ollie North situation:

(Also - "if you are not the intended recpient you must not...".  You *do*
realize that this means that if I receive your mail with this blanket
disclaimer, and I realize that George over in Sales is the right person to deal
with it, I have to delete it rather than forward it and get stuff done for you?
And if I *do* forward it to George, he has to delete it because he's not the
addressee...)

Oh. Not willing to pay for it?  Isn't much I can do to help you then....
