Re: No Limits!

I worked for a company that had to allow access to emails as part of a discovery process. What was exposed in that discovery was not just embarassing, but expensive.

Afterwards, a hard limit was imposed, all emails over 30 days old were deleted automatically unless individually exempted, and it was made plain that emails were not acceptable business/project documents unless saved to the appropriate network share.

It"s hell when you let Legal dictate how to run your business, but that is the kund of crap that msjes it happen.
