Description

The Disclaimers feature allows you to append a plain text message to your emails after your signature and any Campaigns. The Disclaimer is applied like a signature but is not connected to any specific signature template, unlike the Disclaimer signature element found in Branding which is specific to the templates it is added to.

NOTE: This feature is only available to users on Standard and Pro plans. For more information, see Exclaimer pricing plans.
