Our company is required by SEC to monitor and archive all mail going in and out
the firm. I've implemented system that duplicates all mail that's going trough
the firewall and hands it off to a "journal" host. Using IMAP client compliance
people connect to "journal" host and review mail. It's also possible to run
automated scripts to search for key words.
