with either sendmail/postfix/qmail.

This is just my opinion (not that of my employer, my dog, house, or my
two pet fish, and if you're not the person this is intended for then
please destroy your PC :-), and I'm definately not flaming you, but...

It is possible, but do you *really* have to put one on? They're the most
irritating things on the planet. Having 3 screens of what amounts to
"this email is confidential*" is just pointless. I've never received
business letters from people with an extra sheet saying "this letter is
private and confidential, blah blah blah", so why put them on email?

* - No emails are confidential unless you encrypt them...

Anyway, rant over :-) you might find this link helpful...
