Ah. You think I typed that, myself? I didn't. It was automatically
appended by the local email system. Many corporate email systems do
this kind of thing, because (IMHO) the people that run them are more
concerned with posturing within their own value system (which does not
map to reality) than they are with doing anything useful.
Whether you typed it yourself or not, those type of disclaimers are
actually not allowed in mail to mailing lists at this site:
http://sourceware.org/lists.html
The same thing holds true for gcc.gnu.org.
cygwin.com == sourceware.org == gcc.gnu.org
Please find some other way of sending email which does not try to
enforce some kind of faux-legal obligations on the reader.
