Improve Email Retention With MessageGate Archive Categorization

MessageGate^® Archive Categorization delivers the most powerful categorization server on the market today. Through real-time analysis and easy integration with existing archive solutions, Archive Categorization enables companies to apply consistent email archiving policies to messages before they enter the archive. MessageGate can partition messages by category, enhance retrieval capabilities through the addition of policy-related metadata, and reduce archiving costs through elimination of nonbusiness email from the archive. By intelligently classifying and categorizing email before it gets to the archive, retention and retrieval activities become efficient and cost-effective.  

Categorize and Classify Messages
MessageGate-enabled policies analyze all email traffic and tag each message with configurable information that intelligently classifies and categorizes e-mail volume before it gets to the archive. Messages are processed as they are received for more orderly analysis, maintenance, and deletion. The MessageGate tag is used as an additional attribute or attributes to assist in review, retrieval, and investigative activities.

Assign Retention Periods to Messages
Topics or senders/receivers requiring specialized retention periods are identified as the messages are analyzed by MessageGate, allowing a more intelligent approach to determining not only what is saved, but how long it is saved. The retention period information passes with the email message into the archive, and the archive acts on that information as necessary.
