Mimosa Systems NearPoint for Microsoft Exchange Server 3.1 in Software

From our Outlook test client we could see the new archive folder ready and waiting and selecting it showed all our archived email. Simple and advanced search facilities are available, you can browse the archive and restore messages to selected mailboxes.

Another useful feature is the ability to search back to specific time periods. Special permissions for functions such as auditing are granted with NearPoint's roles where you can decide what mailboxes a user can access. Local PST files can also be integrated into NearPoint which provides a nifty crawler utility that searches for them and integrates them into the management interface. You can also let users archive their own local post offices or leave NearPoint to do it automatically.

Mimosa's eDiscovery tool is an optional feature which provides legal search capabilities along with full litigation holds. It offers a well designed interface and its search parameters can be applied to complete mailboxes, tasks, notes, calendars and so on and you can select specific users, groups and complete mail stores. The results can be tagged for further investigation and placing a hold filter on them means NearPoint will put a tamperproof lock on them.

If businesses want to avoid fines and potentially costly legal proceedings they need to makes sure all email is securely archived and available on demand. Mimosa's NearPoint for Exchange Server provides the tools to achieve this along with valuable recovery features as standard and an extensive range of search and eDiscovery tools.
