Brad, Two pieces of advice: 1) Create and meticulously follow a retention policy. I don't think how long you 'retain' data is as important as how long you say you will retain it, but that is why I am sending along the second piece of advice, B) talk to your General Council and policy officer to be sure of any regulatory or legislative requirements. And if all else fails, go stay at a Holiday Inn overnight to gain expertise and knowledge. ______________________________________ Matthew K.

I have been doing a little light reading of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedures and EDiscovery, but now I am more confused. I see that 17 states have adopted the rule and another eighteen states are considering it. I thought a federal rule was mandatory for all states. IS staff will never ask you for your password.
