RE: Retention Policy
Objective The Email Creation Retention Policy requires all users of company email to manage and protect email communications as company records. The intent of this policy implies that most email should be retained for 3 years or less. This requirement includes email on company servers, laptop or desktop hard drives and any other electronic media or peripheral device such as a CD, memory stick or thumb drive. It also includes paper versions. In an effort to measure compliance with this direction, Corporate Compliance has been conducting a monthly analysis of the volume and age of Outlook calendar and email items on company email servers. These items are categorized into: * Items that are 1 -3 years old * Items that are 3 years old As a result of this analysis, Corporate Compliance has initiated an effort to reduce the number of calendar and email items to ensure compliance with email retention requirements. To give you a better understanding of these requirements, here are some highlights from the Email Creation Retention Policy. 1. Email should only be retained on company equipment. 2. Email should be deleted as soon as it is no longer required. 3. Email should be retained based on its content, consistent with the company retention policies. Email should be disposed of when the retention period is complete. 4. If an email does not appear to be covered by a company record retention policy, then the following retention applies. See the Email Creation Retention policy for more examples. * Email in the Sent and Deleted items folders is automatically deleted after 30 days from the date the items were created in the folder. * Email of an informational nature, such as announcements, requiring no follow-up or acknowledgement should be retained no more than 30 days. * Email regarding day-to-day activities should be retained for no more than a year. Many of these emails can be disposed of in less than a year when the activity is completed. This type of email does not establish policy, guidelines, or procedures or certify transaction. * Email having potentially more value should be retained for no more than three (3) years. Examples include general correspondence, monthly and weekly reports, documents advising supervisors of various events, issues or status of ongoing projects. * 5. Destruction or disposal of email must cease when a non-destruction notice is issued by the Law Department. Benefits You may be asking yourself Why should this matter to me? Here are some reasons why this initiative is important: 1. Reduce resources and costs for email storage and backup 2. Enable SOX Compliance 3. Reduce discovery time and risks associated with legal matters 4. Comply with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure by enforcing consistent disposal practices Some records are required to be kept for a certain time period based on legal and governmental requirements. Once the time period is satisfied, the records must be deleted. The basic guideline is that if a record is not needed, delete it! However, a non-destruct order from Legal supersedes the above rules.

This policy has encouraged most employees create PST files. This effectively has made the retention policy irrelevant. We are considering importing all PST data into an email archive product (yet to be purchased) and disabling the ability to use PST files. Because so many users do not comply with the existing policy we will probably change the policy to something that the user base is more apt to adhere to. What are your retention policies set to? What is the reason why you chose the settings you have in place?
RE: [M] [MARKETING] RE: Is an internal open relay allowed?
I know, and that's what we've been telling them. But the fact we are going to prevent relaying is a limitation. It doesn't have to be a limitation; the mail submission port can be used (port 587). You relay for authenticated users only. It sounds like there are several disparate organizations so the hurdle will be to figure out where/how the authentication occurs and who is going to take care of the user accounts. If you're not going to provide the feature that would be a great way to justify why you can't (too much cost). More and more ISP's are filtering port 25 on consumer connections so this remote relaying just becomes a larger and larger thing to deal with over time. ~JasonG
RE: Is an internal open relay allowed?
You could limit those allowed to relay to only your internal IP address ranges. Then you would appease your users and not get your email server listed on open relay blacklists. That would still not be the best solution for the reasons others have mentioned, but it would be an easily workable one.

RE: Is an internal open relay allowed?
Can't speak for the laws where you are but here there could be legal issues involved. For example we have some pretty strict Public Record laws so we would have to add their personal emails sent with that address to our archival system. I would ask them what business use or educational use this home email thing provides. That is always the final test for us. If it does not server educational needs we are not likely to support it. If their home ISP uses SPF (Sender Permitted From) records then their email might bounce. SPF is an addition to your DNS records that says only these servers are allowed to send email for our domain. Not used a lot but often enough I am surprised you have not had issues with that. But let's change your terminology. You are not (I hope) running an open relay. You are allowing authorized users/IP addresses to send email with any from address they want. That is not an open relay, it is a controlled relay and that is allowable. It can be a good solution for traveling people for example.

RE: Is an internal open relay allowed?
Not disappointed at all. You are only allowing internal users to use it. That isn't an open relay by my definition. I would define that as open to anyonelike open to the whole world/internet. What you are doing is very common. Back in the old days before outlook over https we had a bunch of traveling employees that used a specific ISP when on the road. When they were on the road they used that ISP's email server to send our work domain's email, and that ISP was not the one we used at the office. Perfectly acceptable. You don't have an issue with internet 'rules' here at all, you are following them just fine.

RE: Is an internal open relay allowed?
I think if you do allow it, it's going to come back and bite you. The domains they're sending from won't have your servers in their SPF records, and more domains are starting to check those for spam filtering. If you haven't yet, I think you're eventually going to run into delivery problems with those relay emails and they're going to want you to fix it.

Re: Is an internal open relay allowed?
There are no rules for email; however, there are agreed upon standards. Spam filters check for violations against those standards, and block or tag where deemed applicable. Spoofing a domain is a standards violation. However, there are mechanisms for dealing with legitimately spoofed domains. This is handled primarily with rDNS and SPF/SenderID. I would recommend you first identify exactly what it is this discussion wants to accomplish. Then, in accordance with your own mail domain documentation, ascertain what is accomplishable with your current configuration, and if mechanisms like SPF or SenderID could help you accomplish those objectives without getting your domain blacklisted. But, by all means, don't rush this. You could very easily incur a large loss of email if you do this improperly. -- ME2 On Wed, Apr 28, 2010 at 12:24 PM, Vandael Tim tim.vand...@khlim.be wrote: Hello all, Any of you guys here that is familiar with the RFC rules for email?

You don't touch it. Please make sure that the FSW is in the same AD site as the DAG. If not, you can run into replication delays - which is what this appears to be. Regards, Michael B.

After I create the DAG (DAG1). Once that is created, what is the process of finishing the DAG setup? - Create DAG -Create DAG Network (assign subnet(s) where each member resides) -Assign IP addresses to DAG -Create DB Copy Am I on point with this so far? Are there any other steps that I have left out? Thanks. John Bowles
Re: Meeting appointments in Outlook do not get synchronized on mobile devices
Tell them to pick ONE delegate and only that delegate manages things. The rest are merely there in case that one goes on vacation. There is a KB article on the problems that can occur but the only method we've found is eduction and more education until it sticks.

RE: Spiceworks?
Spiceworks does have a nice report builder, but since Lansweeper is SQL based its easy to create custom reports in any number of ways. Also true of Spiceworks with the ODBC driver for SQLite. I may have to give Spiceworks another look because I really want to like it, but 2 years ago I just found it too frustrating with stuck scans, slow response, missing devices and unreliable monitors.
