DisclaimIt ships with a Limited Trial/Relative Expiration Date license certificate file. This evaluation license supports 100,000 users but expires 60 days after installation. According to the End-User Licence Agreement ("EULA"), on expiration of the evaluation license, you must either purchase a valid customer license to convert the evaluation software into a commercial version or, as an alternative, completely uninstall the software.

Licenses for DisclaimIt 1.x, 2.x, 3.x or 4.x are not valid for DisclaimIt 5.5, which requires a DisclaimIt 5.x license. Licenses for DisclaimIt 4.x can be upgraded to DisclaimIt 5.x licenses.

If you own a DisclaimIt 4.x license, you can purchase a new DisclaimIt 5.x license for a special upgrade price (50% of the full price).

A user is defined as follows: Whenever a message is processed by DisclaimIt, the originator of the message counts as a user if the sender address is defined on any recipient object (mailbox/contact/group/public folder). The recipient object of the originator is used to represent the user and is stored in a list which contains all active users. If a user does not send another message, which is processed by DisclaimIt, for 36 hours, the user entry is removed from the list of active users.

The following DisclaimIt 5.x licenses are available:

Displayed prices do not include VAT. Depending on the origin of the customer, VAT might be charged in addition to the net price.

Licenses for more than 10,000 users can only be ordered directly from us by purchase order.

For each user license purchased, you will receive a license certificate file. To apply a license to an installed version of DisclaimIt, copy the new license certificate file to the directory <InstallationPath>\Data\Configuration\Licenses.

An x user license, represented by a license certificate file, may be applied to and used on as many MS Exchange Hub Transport servers within the same organization at the same time as desired. This means that you only need one license for as many users as the maximum number of users to be supported on any of your MS Exchange Hub Transport servers.

More than one user license can be applied to the same computer at the same time. For example: Let's assume that a customer purchased a 50 user license for his 40 user environment. Due to growth of the company, it's foreseeable that within a year 70 user will be using the product. Instead of purchasing a new 100 user license, the customer can purchase a 25 user license and apply it to the computer in addition to the already existing 50 user license. 75 users are now covered by the two licenses on the computer.

All user licenses to be applied to the same server must have been issued to the same licensee. If this is not the case, only one license will be recognized!

A user license is valid for all product releases with the same major version number, e.g.: a DisclaimIt 5.x license is valid for v5.0, v5.4, v5.5, etc.

DisclaimIt can be uninstalled by:

  • Open the MS Windows Control Panel
  • Select 'Uninstall a Program'
  • Find DisclaimIt in the list of programs and double click on it
  • Click the 'Uninstall' button in the DisclaimIt Uninstall window

No. What you downloaded and are currently evaluating is the full product. But the included license certificate file is only valid for 60 days. When you purchase a license, you'll receive a new license certificate file. You must then copy this new license certificate file into the directory <InstallDir>\Data\Configuration\Licenses. The new license certificate file will be automatically detected. There's no need to restart anything or to reinstall the product.

DisclaimIt will not modify messages which are encrypted or signed. Based on your configuration, such messages will be either ignored (send as-is), rejected or wrapped as attachment into new messages.

No. Text is added by DisclaimIt to messages while the message is in transit. The original messages in the user's Sent Items folder are not modified.

In the plain text and rich text of your text module, just insert empty lines at top before your text. In the HTML text, use HTML formatting tags (e.g. <P>, <BR>) to achieve the desired spacing.

It depends:

  • For rich-text messages: The formatting of your rich text is preserved.
  • For plain text messages: You can't specify the font for the plain text because plain text message doesn't support any kind of formatting - except line breaks.
  • For HTML messages: Use CSS attributes in your HTML source code to specify the font to use.
  • Install DisclaimIt on the new server.
  • Copy the content of the directory <InstallDir>\Data\Configuration from the old server to the new server.
