In response to "Still, I find it surprising that there is no software or service that performs this function -- nm" by oblique

well, I don't find it odd that there's no service.

What are the odds that an organization would willingly hand over all of its correspondence to an outsider?

Responses:

so why not have the service ftp/something the files to a secured company server then? -- nm - tRuMaN Dec 23, 13:38 2
- I think the SEC would get pretty pissed off if there was information harvesting like this going on -- nm - Beryllium Dec 23, 13:39 1
  - (In fact, with GMail now positioning itself to offload email services ... the SEC and similar organizations should be keeping an eye out for abuses) -- nm - Beryllium Dec 23, 13:40
But there's YouSendIt and it's like that do this all the time. Just nothing similar on the receiving side -- nm - oblique Dec 23, 13:38 4
- Because by definition, a service would have to view *all* incoming email, whereas yousendit is opt-in -- nm - Beryllium Dec 23, 13:38 3
  - Sure, but again, I also trust Postini to do this for me for spam... -- nm - oblique Dec 23, 13:40 2
    - well ... then, if they don't have an option for that, buy them out and implement it and be a goldenchild of the next decade -- nm - Beryllium Dec 23, 13:41 1
      - I figure you could hook up with Amazon S3 for attachment storage and maybe even - oblique Dec 23, 13:45
