1. Roadshow "Email as a business process - How to fulfil the legal requirements"

At our event, you will find out how to tackle the most important challenges in your email system and at the same time comply with legal requirements. Topics range from legal aspects, comprehensive data protection through full virus and spam protection to tamper-proof archiving.

Come and see us on 6 May in London and on 20 May in Manchester. A legal expert with over 15 years’ experience in data protection will give you an overview of legal aspects in email communications and the resulting risks: What laws apply to email? What risks arise from online contracting? Which information needs to be included in email footers? What needs to be considered when archiving emails?

Three leading suppliers of security and archiving solutions will demonstrate successful strategies for safeguarding and storing your business emails: GROUP Business Software, Unify and Sophos. Our experts are ready to answer your questions using examples drawn from company practices and their own experience.

We look forward to seeing you!

3. GROUP now on Twitter

Keep it short! A good idea in these modern times, so as of now you will find GROUP on Twitter where brevity is key - there is a maximum of 140 characters available for each message.

We will be using this community to provide you with very up-to-date and concise information about GROUP's latest products, events, services and trends. It's worth taking a regular look.

5. iQ.Suite Tips and Tricks for Lotus Domino: Backup-optimised data storage for iQ.Suite Store

iQ.Suite reduces the load on the infrastructure by enabling central and time-controlled email storage using a set of flexible rules. This allows you to store the data in, for example, a year/month/day format.

Find out here how to avoid non-transparent and unsorted storage - and therefore long backups. At the same time, you can discover how the content for storage can be separated from unwanted data and thereby improve the system reaction time.

6. Exchange/SMTP corner: Check file attachments in IQ.Suite quarantine

Companies invest a lot of time tracking down information. If important client data or documents are mislaid by business partners, it’s not only annoying, it’s also bad for business. A universal information management system is therefore essential. This must include a well-designed storage system for all incoming and outgoing emails. This is the only way that electronic mail can be stored in a traceable way. At the same time, important information, including file attachments, does not get lost.

Previously, file attachments first needed to be forwarded to a post box for monitoring. But recently this process has got simpler because the attachments can be checked directly. The way this happens in iQ.Suite for Exchange/SMTP is shown as follows.
