If this is being developed for a State Agency, I'd assume there must be
some guidance available from the State on RM requirements?

In CA, the Secretary of State's office is where RM guidance comes from, and
there's a handbook for all RM efforts from any/all State Agencies to comply
with. They issued a VERY BRIEF guideline for e-mail in 2003, but it's
pretty common sense based.

Know what's a record... if the e-mail is a record, manage it as if it were
any thing else.
"Transitory" (records of minimal value, with retention periods less than 2
years, typically) are allowed to be left within the native application;
anything else should be moved out and managed in an approved EDRMS. And
naturally, records of Senior Officials should be handled differently than
those of others.
