compliance archiving

[pinkpig13]

Hello all,

Can anyone recommend some software that will archive all daily incoming and outgoing e-mails including emails send internally? I need to archive the emails so that it meets regulatory compliance from Sarbanes-oxley, SEC, NASD etc...

I was looking into advisormail.net which is archiving service which has a monthly fee. I rather not do a monthly fee and just have it all done in-house and have it maintained.

I also looked at a open-sourced

http://www.mailarchiva.com

but it requires ActiveDirectory. Unfortunately were still on NT domain =|
I seen other email archiving software but they all seem to want a W2K active directory setup instead of the NT domain that we have. Anything out there that will work with a NT domain and exchange 5.5 ? Like have a server setup with the archive software. The mail would come in and hit the archive server first so it can be archived and then relay/send it to exchange 5.5 for distribution.

Anymore recommendations for me to look at would be great!

thanks
Laura

As I recall on 5.5 journalling is an all or nothing option

Journaling is an option placed on the Message Transfer Agent. It's possible to configure it to capture messages for just a Server, Site or Organization, but only if the message passes through a MTA that has journaling enabled.

Depending on your structure, you may end up doubling your WAN e-mail transfers, if say, you had two Exchange servers at different physical sites with Journaling enabled, and one Archive mailbox. All e-mails passing through the remote (to the archive mailbox) MTA will be copied across the WAN to the archive mailbox.
