Very probably, yes. Silly pseudo-legal disclaimers are being frowned upon. Another way to make sure that your message won't be answered is to use HTML mail like you did right now. For the linux-arm mailing lists (which I happen to administrate), disclaimers and html are a sure way to get your message rejected > I am not sure if kernelnewbies has any filter for this. I am sorry if > this mail also has disclaimer. Kernelnewbies doesn't have a filter, AFAIK. And your mail doesn't contain a disclaimer. > I am sure there are so many ppl out there who has this problem. I > request if anybody has a solution.

Take it up with your manager and tell him you can't get your job done because your exchange admin is too lazy to do his job. > or i request the admin, if this is ok with mailing list becoz lot of > ppl would be having the same problem. couldnt see any help in FAQ > also. The admin alone won't help you, the mailing list members also have to cooperate. I for myself won't reply to mailing list messages with silly pseudo-legal disclaimers.
