Hello Zyrixx,
thank you for your input, I'll checkout the links you mentioned in
more detail later. Just skimming through the first one, it seems that
German users are not enchanted by simply showing them a certificate.
Anyway, I'll create the procedural documentation.

Hello Janos,
The topic "software certifications" is controversially at least in
Germany
controversially discussed or one says, it needs no man.

The company Mailstore uses this "certification" according to IDW-PS-880
only, in order to sell the users their product better.
To the IDW-PS-880 is at
http://www.softguide.de/software-kriterien/idw-ps-880 the following:
"The test procedure is applicable to both standard and individual
software,
but it is not intended to be a legislative or a purely recommendable
one."
What Piler requires according to "German law" is a kind of sample form
for
the "procedural documentation", because Piler fulfills all requirements
according to German law.
The procedural documentation is the responsibility of the administrator
and
let us rather create a sample of this document.

Betreff: GOBD certification
Dear piler users (especially the German ones at this time),
probably all of you have heard that German law mandates that all German
businesses must archive emails starting from this year.
I've been convinced that it's worth to obtain GOBD certification for
piler
to offer the choice of freedom to German users to pick an open source
email
archiving product.
Unfortunately it costs huge money* even for open source applications as
well, so I thought some crowdfunding might help getting the required
amount
of money.
For a successful fundraising campaign I need some helpers from Germany
to
spread the word (email, social media, etc) before the actual campaign
launches, pick a crowdfunding platform, donating the initial seed (I
have a
small donation in mind, like 5 EUR or so), etc.
If you agreed and willing to help, then please drop me a line.
Perhaps I'll create a mailing list for the topic.

costs
may occur during the process)
