Whiskey? no? ok
I would make a standard file pla. Apply the standard file plan to your email. In an ideal world your email platform is uniform throughout your org. if it is much easier. 
 
 
Tell people to print email and file> paper as usual?
catch up. You loose to much information when you do that. the cost is prohibitive (think if you just printed out RAIN howmuch useless paper would you have and every org has a person that sends out volumes via email.) The list of reasons to not print out emails could occupy the list for the rest of the week.
 
 Tell them to save the email electronically as PDF? 
I think I am going to cry.
 
Or> could you suggest something else...?
 
Yup. right about now I am thinking the Whiskey.
