I wouldn't worry about it! Most e-mail disclaimers are completely
pointless and wouldn't stand up in a court of law.

The above says the contents should not be disclosed to any person who is
not a named recipient. But you are not a named recipient and you've seen
the content, so it's rather late reading the disclaimer!

Regards,
Tony.
