>From what was posted last year at The Register:

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2006/12/21/new_web_email_regulation/

all that is required is that emails should contain "company
registration number, place of registration, and registered office
address", in legible characters.

Nothing about any disclaimer - it's simply about giving email the same
legal standing for business communication as a letter.

There have been, to date, only 2 useful/relevant auto-generated mail
footers that I've seen.  Neither were disclaimers :)
