Is there anyway to enforce a protective marking scheme on emails in exchange 2003 / 2010 aside from the user having to manually write PROTECT, CONFIDENTIAL etc at the top of the email...

1. With Exch 2010 you can create a transport rule but this will be at the bottom of the mail and not the top. 2. You can probably get loads of 3rd party tools which will do ths for you, search Google. 3. You should also consider using Win RMS.Sukh

Hi, The transport rule can only append the disclaimer text in the bottom of the message. Please remember to click Mark as Answer on the post that helps you, and to click Unmark as Answer if a marked post does not actually answer your question. This can be beneficial to other community members reading the thread. Thanks Gen Lin-MSFT

Take a look at the 360 Systems suite of protective marking software solutions for Outlook and Office. This product challanges the user to make a positive selection of a list of markers and appends the marker to the email subject for them. http://www.360-systems.com/content/applications/protective-marking

TITUS offers a solution for Messaging (Outlook 2003-2010), Office, OWA and Lotus Notes) which support adding body tags to first/last line of text and embedding metadata in the message for use by downstream services like Reporting, DLP and S/MIME. Further information can be found at http://www.titus.com. We also provide classification solutions for many desktop file types and SharePoint as well.
