Extract e-mails from the messaging system– Option: together with meta data (like subject, sender, date, …)
… and store them in an electronic archive system (repository)– On hard drive, tape, or optical disks (WORM)– For many years
Access archived e-mails (retrieval)– Through the Domino client– Through the client of the electronic archive

What drives e-mail archiving today?
Growth of the messaging system
– More users– Larger mail boxes– More expensive operation
Requirement– Reduce the growth of the
messaging system– Offload old e-mails from
production messaging system– Keep old e-mails in near on-
line access
Legal requirements or industry regulations
– E-mails treated as business records (based on procedures)
– Provide e-mails on demand during audit or investigation
Example 1– User selects e-mails that should
be business records
Example 2– All e-mails of a certain user group
have to be captured and retained for a certain number of years
– Example: Securities Exchange Commission (SEC), regulations for broker and dealers

Archiving Types
Entire messages– Mail header (To, From, Subject, ...) can be kept as a
placeholder (“stub“) in Notes views or folders– Mail becomes very small or is removed completely
Attachments only– Only the attachments are archived, – Text in mail body remains unmodified
Convert format of message– Line data, Rich text– Any other format (like TIFF, PDF) through program exit
![Page 11: E-mail archiving and DB2 CommonStore for Lotus Domino](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/568141f8550346895dadd564/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
11
Archiving Type - Entire messages
Highlights– 100 % document fidelity (no format conversion)– Includes Notes specific Rich text elements
• Database links, buttons, sections, …
– Works for messages in Notes Richtext and MIME format– Works for signed and encrypted messages
Several options for mail placeholder– Text only (configurable)– Retrieval hotspot– Intelligent abstract of message
![Page 12: E-mail archiving and DB2 CommonStore for Lotus Domino](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/568141f8550346895dadd564/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

13
Archiving Type - Entire messages (cont.) Intelligent abstracting (optional)
– A short summary of the mail is inserted in the mail body– Intelligent text analysis based on IBM’s Text Analysis Framework
(TAF) identifies most relevant sentences (special training for e-mails)
– Length (number of phrases) can be configured– Mail placeholder remains small (around 3 KB)
Benefit– Better search results for user since the abstract is included in the
Domino full-text index– No additional license cost for intelligent text analysis
![Page 14: E-mail archiving and DB2 CommonStore for Lotus Domino](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062304/568141f8550346895dadd564/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

15
Archiving Type - Attachment
Highlights– Archives only the attachment– Works for messages in Notes Richtext and MIME format– Works even for attachments outside of mail body – Works for signed messages– Mail body remains intact– Can save 60-75 % of entire message storage space
Attachment placeholder– In the exact location (not at end of message)
• Option 1: Text with hidden URL for Web retrieval
• Option 2: Text only (no URL)New
