Is it possible to format text in a text resource which is used for message footer ?
(integrate bold or underline types)

Funny you ask that because I tried it yesterday.

The only wart on the IronPort system, in my opinion, is the fact you can't do any HTML tagging or text formatting.

Guys, listen up! Help your customers out!!!

Hi,

here's my home-brewed html/text footer solution.
Doesn't look nice, but works. Very important the tag!
If you are testing, make sure your client (outlook) is not sending out mails in BASE64. The HTML actually could look simplier, but I'm too lazy too change it :-) Also this allow you to make a difference between text and html.

Textresources:
HTML-Footer:

German bla bla with Umlaut äöü


 


English blabla




TEXT-Footer:
Normal Text bla bla. Try to avoid special chracter sets.


Content Filters Outgoing:

Order 1:
HTML-Footer: if (body-contains("text/html")) OR (body-contains("multipart/mixed")) { add-footer("HTML-Footer"); insert-header("X-Footer", "HTML"); }

Order 2:
TEXT-Footer: if (header("X-Footer") != "HTML") { add-footer("TEXT-Footer"); }

SSH:
In localeconfig say 3 times yes.

Dude, that's solid work. I didn't even think of the tag. I'll have to give this a shot.

The approach presented is correct but the HTML is a little questionable since it doesn't balance the pre tags and should not end with . For this to work you must start the text resource with and should end with

 (case insensitive). For example, a simplistic HTML footer would be:

Disclaimer


This works since we insert the text resource between a
 pair.

The HTML looks indeed funny, but you will need the starting tag. You will see, if you fiddle around with it.

:!: Notes/Domino users must use "MIME Format" instead of "Notes Rich Text Format" on their clients to make the HTML footer to work.

hey ... does someone have a solution to prevent multiple disclaimers?

Yes - in short create a dictionary with a one line of text from the disclaimer.

Then write a content filter that looks for this one line of text...if it finds it..then it should deliver the mail so it does not pass thru any other filters, if it does not contain the text then add the disclaimer.

Key is ordering of filters..look before you add.

jeah that would be great! we have about 10 different disclaimers i think it might be a little bit to resource hungry to ask for each line of the disclaimers... in additon to that, all this footers are changing from time to time. i don't realy want to edit the filters for each footer change. there must be a better way =) *please* :lol:

HTML in email? How do you propose preventing my stripping out your codes in my MUA?

To save about 15 minutes of bewilderment, ensure that the closing tag is at the very top of the footer.
