CodeTwo Exchange Rules 2010 is an application to centrally manage signatures and disclaimers for mail sent using Exchange Server 2010 in a very efficient way.
This is not yet an official launch but just letting you know we have made available CodeTwo Exchange Rules for Exchange Server 2010. We are the first company in the world to create software enabling the central management of personal signatures, company disclaimers and legal notes in Exchange 2010.
CodeTwo Exchange Rules 2010, following the line of CodeTwo Exchange Rules disclaimer products for Exchange, is downloadable from our website and can be ordered online. Equipped with this program, the administrators of Exchange 2010 will be able to configure unified personal signatures and disclaimers inserted automatically to emails processed by Exchange 2010 within minutes. Companies can use this program to increase corporate awareness using the most popular communication channel today i.e. electronic mail. Owing to the advanced capabilities of CodeTwo Exchange Rules 2010, messages sent by employees can contain the sender’s photo in the signature, or advertise the company products and services as well as give updates on the current promotions.
Some of you may wonder what the rationale behind this product is if Exchange 2010 finally has a built-in capability to manage disclaimers. Unfortunately the feature of Exchange misses on a number of capabilities, which often make it unfit for professional purposes. If you wish to learn why we recommend using CodeTwo Exchange Rules 2010 to manage corporate mail in Exchange 2010, see this article: Signatures and disclaimers in Exchange Sever 2010.
We have released a minor update versioned 2.1 to CodeTwo Exchange Rules 2007, an application used in the management of disclaimers and signatures in Exchange mail. The new items in the program include:
It is possible to split a single message sent to large number of users to insert varied disclaimers. This feature is useful when a message needs to be processed by multiple rules of CodeTwo Exchange Rules 2007, e.g. a single message need different footers for different recipients. By default a message sent to multiple users will be handled as a single message by Exchange Server. This is why inserting different footers caused a problem. This is now fixed. Read more about how to split messages addressed to multiple recipients.
It is possible now to add custom Active Directory fields used by the program. The file containing custom variables named SchemaExtension.txt must be placed in the installation directory of the application. The newly added variables are available in the signature editor after restarting the server. Read more about how to add new AD fields to the program.
Extra Active Directory cache has been added to the application. This will reduce the queries to Active Directory leading to enhanced performance.
New installer for a desktop installation. It is possible to install the program on a desktop without Exchange. This is useful for customers who want non-admin users without access to Exchange to prepare the settings and footer templates to be later copied to the server. Read more about how to use the desktop version.
The update is dedicated for users of 2.0 and is free of charge. To update the currently used version with the fix, download and run the installer. The previous version will be automatically detected and patched. Detailed information on the update procedure can be found here.

The emergence of Exchange Server 2010 triggered a round of tests of the disclaimer system built in to this server by Microsoft. We were simply curious if the feature allowing the management disclaimers in the new Exchange is a major step forward in comparison to its predecessor. Our findings are that the users of Exchange 2010 who want to have really professional signatures / disclaimers in email will still need to rely on 3rd party tools, such as CodeTwo Exchange Rules 2010. The test proved there has been little progress in this respect in the new Exchange Server 2010 as it turns out the new server lacks even the basic features our solution has boasted for quite a while, let alone those more advanced ones. Although it now supports HTML and Active Directory fields, it does not include even a very simple disclaimer builder. You will not be able either to insert the footer in selected places in the message, such as below the most recent response. We were unable to make the program add the company logo, but we believe it would have happened if we had kept on trying. But the software should not be that complicated.
For those of you who have already upgraded to Exchange Server 2010 and look for a solution that will take care of the signatures and disclaimers, we have published the release version of CodeTwo Exchange Rules 2010. Read below the whole story describing our first test with the built-in disclaimers system in Exchange 2010. Continue reading ‘Signatures and disclaimers in Exchange Server 2010′
