Disclaimer message
Hi everyone. Our department is in the process of implementing Zimbra and I have a question. Can we set the system up that all out going email has one of the standard email disclaimers at the bottom of the email? If so does anyone have instructions on how to set that up?
Thank you.

Assuming (as you're a new user) that you're on 6.0.4. From the release notes found at http://files.zimbra.com/website/docs...%206.0.4r1.pdf:
If you're on an earlier version, look for 'Altermime' in the forums.New Features for 6.0.4
• System wide mandatory signatures can be created. The following attributes
have been added to control system wide mandatory signatures:
• zimbraDomainMandatoryMailSignatureEnabled (TRUE/FALSE)
• zimbraDomainMandatoryMailSignatureText (text/plain)
• zimbraDomainMandatoryMailSignatureHTML (text/html)
These attributes can also be set on the domain level but there is currently
no code that reads the domain level attributes. These attributes are
currently only available via the zmprov CLI utility. Admin console access will
be added on the global and domain level when the domain level capability
is added.
To create a system wide mandatory signature, enter the following:
zmprov mcf zimbraDomainMandatoryMailSignatureEnabled TRUE
zmprov mcf zimbraDomainMandatoryMailSignatureText <some text>
zmprov mcf zimbraDomainMandatoryMailSignatureHTML
"<html><body>some html text</body></html>"
Restart amavis to apply the configuration and write out the global signature
files used by altermime. Type:
/opt/zimbra/bin/zmamavisdctl restart
Hope that helps.

I followed the instructions from the release notes in the PDF for the system wide Disclaimer.... but no luck.. Is there a way to see this in a log file...

I followed the instructions in the release notes as well with no luck. I'm using the text configuration option.
zmprov mcf zimbraDomainMandatoryMailSignatureEnabled TRUE
zmprov mcf zimbraDomainMandatoryMailSignatureText "Domain Signature Here"
zmamavisdctl restart
Tested outgoing mail, but I don't see the signature appended. Using ZCS 6.0.4.

Did you send the message or just start to write it, the footer is added to the mail on send. Also, if you only set the text version, are you sure your message was sent as plaintext?
I've tried this using the same instructions and it works fine.

As Dirk mentioned, global signatures only work with e-mail not being composed as HTML. AFAIK it's best practice to set "compose E-Mail as Text" in the corresponding cos.

I tried and it did not work; I am guessing you need to have amavisd running for it to work. Especially due to the requirement of restarting it after making the zmprov changes.

After following the instructions and setting both the text and html versions of the email, I sent emails using plain text format and again with html format to both internal and external email addresses. I still had no luck. amavisd is running. I am using 6.04. Prior to upgrading to 6.0.x I had been using the altermine approach and signatures were being attached.

I would at what point the signatures are attached; whether it is via amavis or via a Java process.
