re: #59 Charles Johnson

There are so many ways to lose email; in this case I’d have to say that if you blame Lerner for anything, it’s that she didn’t have a backup of her laptop hard drive.

They apparently had a limit of 500MB on their Outlook server (ridiculously low these days), so obviously if she wanted to keep anything she needed to download it and delete it from the server.

I’ve only been dealing with issues like this for 15+ years, what do I know?

I probably get close to 1000 emails a week at work, mostly just status updates or shift change notes which get junked. Then we get the people who seem to think they need to send out 15mb attachments rather than just provide a link to the fileshare for a file. I end up having to sort and archive my mail about every 2 weeks.

Technically, we’re supposed to “SAVE EVERYTHING”, but practically speaking, no one does. We don’t have the resources or real ability to do so.
