It's irrelevant, since that "STRICTLY PROHIBITED" verbiage is irrelevant,
unenforceable and legally meaningless. I could post that message on my
personal blog, being not the intended recipient myself, and they would b e
utterly powerless to do anything about it even if they sent it privately to my
personal email inbox.
I don't even know why people bother even putting such nonsense into their
emails, let alone Usenet or mailing-list posts.

This may sound like a surprise, but many of us don't. Several companies
use an auto-append on any outgoing message not sent to an internal
recipient. You can see this for yourselves in this message, as my
company's little blurb gets attached after my signature lines. It's just
standard boilerplate meant as a CYA measure, really.
