RE: Making email delete itself

[Ben Winzenz]

Title: Message

Consider legal implications as well.  Once an e-mail leaves your corporate e-mail system, it no longer belongs to your company.  Trying to enforce a policy like this to everyone outside your company doesn't sound like it would bode too well with the legal community.  You should do some serious checking with your legal folks to find out if something like this (I still think it is not possible to do anyway) would be legal.  If not, all it would take is another company to get a whiff of what you were doing, and they would slap you with a huge lawsuit.   Ben Winzenz, MCSE Network/Systems Administrator Peregrine Systems   -----Original Message----- From: HOLLIDAY, Eric [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, April 09, 2002 1:08 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Making email delete itself   Ben.  I'm with you.  Really.  I tried to tell him that I didn't think it was a good idea, but I have to find out what I can, regardless.   Eric Holliday LMI Exchange Administrator -----Original Message----- From: Ben Winzenz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, April 09, 2002 1:53 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Making email delete itself I think you and your CEO are both dreaming.  You think there is an app out there that will not only control your mail system, but everyone else's mail system in the world?  That, in essence, is what you are saying.  Wake up.  It's not going to happen.  You can control what is on your system, or organization, and that is it.  Now if that is what you were referring to, then that's different.  Mailbox Manager from SP4 will manage mailboxes and delete items past a certain date.  But that is only within your organization, and only on the servers that have implemented it.   Ben Winzenz, MCSE Network/Systems Administrator Peregrine Systems   -----Original Message----- From: HOLLIDAY, Eric [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, April 09, 2002 12:44 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Making email delete itself   My CEO has been told by a colleague that there is an Outlook 2000 add-on that will remove messages past a preset expiration date, no matter where the message has been sent.  He's getting info on the name of this application at my request.  Has anyone ever heard of an app that will actually do this?   TIA, Eric Holliday Exchange Administrator Corporate Information Systems Logistics Management Institute   [EMAIL PROTECTED]     "Yoda of Borg are we: Futile is resistance.
