With all the talk of the disappearing emails, I found the ARMA website
post on Digital rights Management capabilities interesting.  If you get

When I first heard of emails that you could not forward or print I
cringed as a records management nightmare took place -what if the
recipients or those who took action did not take responsibility for
filing their actions relating to it?  This article also references the
limited time viewing for emails set by the sender.  Technology seems to
make us and break us at the same time.

Excellent point Larry.  Seems that the company selling the system is
attempting to capitalize on employee laziness.  We can save our
organizations $$ by not purchasing the system, getting some exercise,
and increase visibility and morale to boot!  What a concept!
