Nissan adds e-mail disclaimers to Exchange 2000 with Policy Patrol

Carson City, NV - May 15, 2002 - Red Earth Software, developer of e-mail policy enforcement solutions, today announced that Nissan Ireland has deployed a 250 user installation of Policy Patrol to add e-mail disclaimers and signatures to their Exchange 2000 server. Nissan selected Policy Patrol for its ease of use and ability to use Active Directory fields. The program's user-based disclaimer functionality and competitive price were further considerations for choosing Policy Patrol.

'I am very impressed with the simplicity of Policy Patrol's Active Directory integration and lack of resource impact on existing IT administration tasks,' said Rory Donnelly, General Manager I.T & e-Commerce of Nissan Ireland. 'Before installing Policy Patrol we were adding signatures and disclaimers at the client side, so that every time we set up a new user, we had to configure the signature on the individual user's PC. Not only was this time consuming, it also caused problems when the user changed department, title or telephone number.'

'Now that we have deployed Policy Patrol, the burden of this task has been significantly reduced,' Rory Donnelly added. 'We have simply configured one global signature with merge fields on our Exchange 2000 server. For each outgoing mail Policy Patrol automatically replaces the fields with the sender's Active Directory properties, creating a fully personalized signature. Furthermore, by regularly synchronizing with the Active Directory, Policy Patrol automatically updates any changes made to the user properties.'

These features make the disclaimer notices more specific and distinguishable, thus improving their effectiveness. Policy Patrol works with Exchange Server 2000, 5.5, Lotus Notes/Domino and any other SMTP mail server.
