Adding Custom Text to the Communicator 2007 R2 Instant Messaging Page

Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 and Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 R2 will reach end of support on January 9, 2018. To stay supported, you will need to upgrade. For more information, see Resources to help you upgrade your Office 2007 servers and clients.

You can add a text message that appears in the instant messaging pane of the Conversation window every time an instant messaging session starts.

To do this, use the IMWarning policy key under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Communicator. This policy can also be set in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Communicator, but settings in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE take precedence.
