It's unlikely that you or the system itself has the ability to delete mail in accordance with a well written retention policy (no offense, I've been researching this subject for a book for quite some time). If your legal counsel has simply given you a retention policy of something like 'everything older than 120 days should go' then I'd respectfully suggest you ask your legal counsel to revisit the policy as it's woefully inadequate.. especially for a company such as yours.
-----Original Message----- From: James Liddil To: Exchange Discussions Sent: 10/4/2002 9:00 AM Subject: Policy issue I seem to be facing resistance from management on implementation of an e-mail policy. Despite everything our legal counsel provided and such are not ready to go forward. They have a problem with either the system of myself deleting mail that past the retention period. Some feel that a member of management should be the one deleting the e-mail. I'm sure you can see what's wrong with that picture. I am looking for advice, besides sit on my hands and wait until an event happens that forces them to implement a policy. _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
