Microsoft Exchange 2007 includes features that support the goals of records managers and corporate compliance officers. Because the Exchange 2007 features that support records management were designed to easily integrate with the records management features of Office SharePoint Server 2007, e-mail messages can be sent to Office SharePoint Server 2007 and stored as records where you can manage their retention, classification and expiration from a central location. It is beyond the scope of this topic to provide a full analysis of the tasks and procedures required to configure Exchange 2007 for records management. The tasks and procedures for configuring Exchange 2007 to send records to a Records Center site are listed below.
