Under the new eDiscovery rules that went into effect Dec 1, you could go 
to jail for not being able to produce an email related to a lawsuit. That 
is YOU, the CIO of your company. This applies to private as well as public 
companies; actually any entity who can be sued. The crime is "spoliation"; 
destruction of evidence or potential evidence. You need to have an 
electronics records retention policy in place and have the ability to hold 
documents from destruction under your policy once they've been subpoenaed.

I'm not a lawyer. I may be overstating this absurdly. However, it has been 
the topic of many records managment discussions I've heard in the past 
year.

RE: AS400 EMAIL ...






That's a good point.  We use the i5 as the mail server and cannot archive
mail.

We're a privately held company, not public.  What kinds of reasons we 
there
be that we would need to archive email?
