Or you could use some form of collaboration software such as Outlook Team Folders (similar to PF's but more versatility)- unsupported by MS at present but it looks good. If u can't find it I can send the pack over -it's only about 1.6mb for both files. Have a look at: http://www.slipstick.com/dev/teamfolders.htm

You have already decided that keeping the emails is important, therefore: 1) storing the emails in a public folder is the way to go 2) Permissions can be set to only allow them to add messages and not delete. (no different to file permissions 3) You could assign a SMTP address to the PF and get them to send on behalf of the PF to save them . 4) Archiving after project closure to PST is the way to go (OL 2003 removes the 2GB limit) cheers Dean >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 19/09/2003 11:13:01 p.m. >>> I fear that I will run out of disk space very fast on the server. They all have 20 GB free on their workstations, how about setting up a pst folder on their D-drives, then they can drag the mails into that one?

You know the access on these can be limited so each "pair" has their own folder that no one else can see let alone read content from. > -----Original Message----- > From: Kim Schotanus [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 19 September 2003 09:39 > To: Exchange Discussions > Subject: options > > > Hi there, > > I have been asked to think about a way to implent a kind of policy for > keeping emails.
