Hi Deb,
You've come close to answering your own question:
" The concern is to implement a system to:

   - store email for the required amount of time,
   - enable destruction at the end of the retention period, and
   - make the records easily retrievable
   - by appropriate personnel (so security will need to be applied to
   various people/groups)."

Review the RIM Standards and identify the specific functionality that will
meet your key requirements as you stated above.  Focus on RIM Functional
Requirements and Metadata required to classify for
security, retention, searching and destruction functions.

This isn't Rocket Science, but must be logical, systematic and functional.
