Andrew, I'd say yes. Once you've conceded that an email message can
definitely constitute a corporate 'record', then a number of legislative
requirements kick in.
How you manage the blessed things is the big question. Have a look at:

And see what you're left with when there's no resource available for
EDRMS.
Best,
Gerry.
