There is some M$ crap mail-server that can be configured to
put that junk on the end of all the mail. There is no way
for an ordinary user to prevent it except by changing job.

Is this a joke? It doesn't make sense sending a disclaimer like this to
a mailing list!

A lot of buisnesses have their MTAs setup to automatically add that
attachment. IMHO it is a /very/ bad idea to do so, and is probably some form
of violation of the employees' free speech rights.

That, and since he sent it to the lkml, everyone subscribed is the intended
recipient. ;)
