policy, each of which may be as brief as you like.

Subject: [data-protection] e-mail storage systems case law
A friend has asked me to ask if there has been any case law about e-mail
storage systems.
My friends company allow staff to use e-mail for personal and home life use
as well as business.
Her IT guys have started telling her that it is a legal requirement to have
an e-mail storage and retention archive because of the DPA (it would keep a
copy of every e-mail transaction for at least 5 years) We both believe this
to be rubbish, but what does the floor think are there any case law or legal
requirements for such a system. She is not hit by foi as she is a private
company.
