Manage
your e-mail overload
E-mail
Life Cycle Management strategy from C2C keeps
companies legal and cuts costs.
Reading, UK - July 9th 2002 - C2C
Systems, the provider of solutions for managing e-mail environments to
3 million Microsoft Exchange and Outlook users world-wide, is warning
about the danger of internal company e-mail overload. With some global
organizations sending and receiving up to 4 or 5 million e-mails a day,
the need for internal control is immense.
There is evidence
that ignoring e-mail life cycle controls can carry huge costs for organizations.
· Uncontrolled storage of offensive e-mails, or comment on colleagues
or competitors can cost thousands, even millions of dollars in court if
pursued.
· Simply managing mailbox size through auto-zipping of attachments
or policy-driven storage can provide 36:1 return in cost savings. (Giga
Information Group)
· Inappropriate mailbox and folder permissions can compromise security
of restricted financial information, leading to regulatory inquiries.
"In terms of
e-mail control, Exchange users have come a long way from just needing
centralized admin, like they did a few years ago" says Dave Hunt,
CEO of C2C. "They now have to know that e-mail really is working
for their business. E-mail has a life of its own that goes beyond just
the need to communicate; it can turn into a real monster if it's ignored
and gets out of control. It's no good just sticking your head in the sand
and hoping it'll be OK."
Kevin McCuistion,
Exchange Group Product Manager at Microsoft said "Exchange/Outlook
information systems are truly at the heart of all their users' organizations.
Optimal systems management and control are critical to the successful
running of Exchange. C2C's strategy to help customers develop plans for
legal and security compliance and capacity management makes absolute sense."
The 10 year old UK
headquartered company has responded to its users' demands for control
strategies, by developing "Taming the e-mail monster" an E-mail
Life Cycle Management Workbook. This guide to developing a flexible control
strategy for Microsoft based e-mail environments, aids companies to prepare
for the changes in their messaging environment and keep control over e-mail
before damage is done.

C2C's vision of E-mail
Lifecycle Management encompasses a Mailbox Size Management Strategy to
help optimize the systems environment and E-mail Risk Control to limit
the potential liability of litigation.
E-mail Life Cycle Management provides a framework to control the impact
of e-mail within the Exchange/Outlook environment. This minimizes the
impact each item has on total system resources and reduces the legal risks
associated with e-mail.
Mailbox Size Management Strategy: For organizations that need to minimize
expenditures on storage and reduce disaster recovery windows, implementing
an effective MSMS will reduce server loads, shorten restore times, increase
ROI on storage expenditures, and slow the consumption of new storage as
it is made available. MSMS encompasses archiving, compression (auto-zipping)
and data management controls.
E-mail Risk Control defends against the main policy, legal and regulatory
risks associated with e-mail. This encompasses e-mail content control
and folder permissions security checking.
