Business related emails are a major corporate asset in their
own right. The Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) in the US, the Financial Services Authority (FSA) in the UK
require secure, long-term archival and retrieval of email, including audit
trails for retrieval and disposition.Companies can expect to see more use of The Civil
Evidence Act 1995 which made Electronic documentation legally admissible in
court. Companies need to be able to prove that electronic documents have not
been tampered with and prove receipt of such documents. But just being able to
prove such documents were send and received is not enough. Companies need to be
able to retrieve any such documentation within 30 days or face a fine under the
Data Protection act.
Managing emails cost effectively is a critical challenge that
must be met in light of the importance of email as a business tool. When your
email server(s) is having problems, the entire business is impacted. As a result your
resources are used managing and maintaining an email system instead of being
able to focus on revenue generating projects.
