Email is one of the most frequently used communication tools for corporate business, and is used as evidence in courtrooms and recognized by judiciaries. Until now, it’s been difficult to extract original email files as digital evidence that can be qualified in court due to the time, resources, inter-departmental cooperation, and technology required.
