Hi again,

Attached is a patch to qmail-1.03 that lets you add a footer to every
outgoing mail.

The patch appends the contents of /var/qmail/control/footer, if present,
to every outgoing mail

However be aware that it may broke the mail if it's not plain-text.

Best Regards,
- Murat

How to enabling the footer in the outgoing mail qmail on SME?

It's a bad idea. Don't do it. As the quoted text says, the added text can break messages. "Standard footers" are just a waste of your time and everybody else's anyway.

For the record, qmail is very careful never to change the contents of any message. It just moves the message from sender to receiver.
