Microsoft Outlook includes different options for customizing the appearance and performance of your email messages. These options can vary from the way in which incoming messages are separated into folders to any additional information that is attached to your outgoing email messages. Adding a default string of text to messages in Outlook is known as a signature, but the text can be modified to display a privacy disclaimer. You can configure this disclaimer for only certain outgoing messages and you can edit it if necessary.
