The situation in Germany/Austria is, that you have too keep all messages for
legal users except when you refuse the messages on SMTP level. When you want to
delete some messages after accepting them, the owner of the mailbox must
explicitly agree to that.
I'm not completely sure on archiving. In Germany (and I think in Austria, too),
you have to store Mails which are relevant for your business-cases in
arevision-safe, digitally signed form between six and ten years (an not-free
Article describing the situation in Germany can be ordered at
http://www.heise.de/kiosk/archiv/ix/2005/2/96_kiosk ). As it is very hard to
decide what is business-relevant, I would try to filter out as much as possible
on SMTP-layer and archive the rest of the mails.

Does this legal issue mean that for archiving purposes you have to
keep all mail destined for a valid user? I would think for an
archiving purpose you could at least delete the spam.
Thanks
