Hi, I have a question - has anyone had to do a "data discovery subpoena" for a student that has their email outsourced? What was the process and how much cooperation did you get from the vendor?

Dennis, I believe that the same can be said for Microsoft or any other email hosting provider. Our Gmail setup is as such there is no advertising, hence no snooping (but can one really be sure regardless if its google, MS or someone other email hosting provider?).
