E-mail archiving service adds business continuity

June 23, 2006 (Computerworld) -- LiveOffice this week announced enhancements to its AdvisorMail message archiving service offer business
continuity and improved e-mail management capabilities for its customers.
"For $500 a year, it was an extremely efficient and easy solution to comply with SEC compliance rules and keep our business running," said Robert Wofchuck, CEO of Ledgewood Capital Management LLC, an Exeter, N.H., small broker and investment adviser with four employees and $100 million in assets under management.
Ledgewood had been looking for a way to comply with SEC rules for e-mail retention and business continuity, and chose AdvisorMail because it was simple to get started and was less expensive than other applications, Wofchuck said.
Wofchuck, who has been using the service for about four months, said he was particularly interested in the business continuity feature because it enables his employees to work from home if something keeps them from coming to the office.
AdvisorMail 5.0 also includes an application that lets email administrators establish a set of rules for retaining and controlling outgoing email, said Steve Uhring, vice president of business development for LiveOffice. Messages that do not comply with the rules are captured and sent to the user organization's compliance department for review, either before or after the e-mail is sent, depending on how the organization configures it.
LiveOffice, located in Torrance, Calif., supports Microsoft Exchange and IBM Notes, Uhring said.
The business continuity feature gives users Web-based e-mail accounts and access to previously posted e-mail, while the mailbox management feature automatically archives e-mail and gives users access to the archive, Uhring said.
The service costs $10 per month per e-mail account.
