Kirton & McConkie Ease E-mail Pains

Salt Lake City's Kirton & McConkie faced a critical communications issue. With 87 attorneys and additional support staff all using e-mail as a primary method to communicate with internal staff, clients, investigators and others essential to our cases, e-mail is the most important record for all types of data. We were using a backup product to perform a full database backup on the weekends, and incremental backups during the week on our Exchange server; however, the tape backup software didn't allow us to easily search and retrieve e-mail messages and attachments. Additionally, the need for large mailboxes (sometimes as big as 2 or 3 gigabytes), as well as increased e-mail activity, had caused our Exchange database to grow to an unmanageable 120 GB. We couldn't reduce e-mail service, as partners and staff relied on e-mail as the primary communications tool to handle cases. But, the risk of losing pertinent information was oppressive, and managing e-mail data and maintaining seamless access to archived information became a mission-critical task for IT services.
