That's nice, but it's not your choice. Regulators demand prompt, often overnight, responses to search requests (sometimes many concurrent requests). Do not think for a minute that "unrealistic" is the IT staff's trump card against compliance. This is not as simple as you think it is, but that's understable because you've evidently never been under the gun of a SOX or SEC investigation. Three of our clients have been through the latter (cleared, I might add, but now with double the liability insurance premium, probably forever). Two of these companies have less than 50 employees, and one has four full-timers. --Sandy ------------------------------------ Sanford Whiteman, Chief Technologist Broadleaf Systems, a division of Cypress Integrated Systems, Inc. e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] SpamAssassin plugs into Declude! http://www.mailmage.com/products/software/freeutils/SPAMC32/download/release/ Defuse Dictionary Attacks: Turn Exchange or IMail mailboxes into IMail Aliases! http://www.mailmage.com/products/software/freeutils/exchange2aliases/download/release/ http://www.mailmage.com/products/software/freeutils/ldap2aliases/download/release/ --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.
