I would leave it. What's the upside?
That my boss won't ask me why I haven't done it already.

Good point. Although the longer you go, the less likely anyone is to notice. They've been conditioned to not have it. It will slip more and more from their minds. Implement it and it is a flare letting people know that you forgot until now

No big company that I know of does it. Not Wall St. firms or anything like that.
I've just checked some e-mail's I've received from people at three different big banks and they all have one. Maybe it's more of a UK thing.

Big ones like HSBC and Barclays? Or little local ones?

I just checked and I DID get this from Barclays.

AT&T again.

@JaredBusch that one is a little better because it tells what is intended and asks nicely that someone "please" do something. Far better than people demanding that an unknown third party 1) go to a web site to read rules 2) obey the commands of the sender 3) face prosecution for having been the unwitting recipient of potential spam.

Bah hit submit on accident.
Anyway, this post was citing some court decisions that did recognize the disclaimers.

Basically it is all a big maybe.

Yes, those all make sense. None of those are the case that I find useless, though, which is telling people "if you are not the intended recipient" that they must take some action. Announcing legal confidentiality or putting notices on internal communications are very different - that's a disclaimer between intended parties.

UK is looking to take legal action against disclaimers.

Ugh, our country is falling apart but our politicians still find the time to dick around with trivial legislation telling us what we can and can't do.
We've just implemented a signature management system by these boys www.exclaimer.co.uk, primarily to embed our company logo into all outgoing e-mails. This works a treat with on-premise Exchange and Marketing love it (by default, anything Marketing love, I hate). They also do an Office365 version.
