In the corporate world, the generally accepted internal policy is that email is not a system of record, and that when documents (including the email itself) are sent or received via email, those must be exported separately and saved in whatever is the system of record. This, of course, flies contrary to the trends in e-discovery from a prosecutorial point of view, but it does make sense.

Just because you don't use reliable a long term storage medium doesn't mean you don't have and use those records. It doesn't even fly contrary to e-discovery, it's just a difference in multiple contextual definitions of "record."
- sukilot 12y agoThat's more like saying "RAM is not durable storage, everything must be saved to disk for durability." It doesn't mean it's OK to run the office solely in RAM, it means the opposite.
