MIMOSA SYSTEMS ANNOUNCES EDISCOVERY EXPERT SERIES
FOR MICROSOFT EXCHANGE

Experts Discuss Hot Issues and Trends for Managing the Explosion of User-Driven Content and the Ever-Increasing Demands of Legal Discovery

Santa Clara , Calif. , August 27, 2007 - Mimosa SystemsT, a leader in Live Content Archiving solutions, today announced a four-part webinar series hosted by industry experts and dedicated to the subject of email archiving and eDiscovery for Microsoft® Exchange Server. This series addresses the issues many IT and legal professionals have as they struggle with effectively storing and managing the explosion of user-driven information in a way that complies with the ever-increasing demands of legal discovery. Attendees will gain insight to help them implement an effective email archiving and eDiscovery strategy that will reduce risk, optimize performance, and lower costs.

According to Forrester Research, eDiscovery technology spending will grow from $1.4 billion in 2006 to more than $4.8 billion in 2011 as enterprises prepare for electronic discovery. Driving technology adoption in this area are amendments to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (FRCP) and broader retention management strategies which call for a more proactive approach to meet compliance standards.

"In simpler days, the focus with email was on keeping backups, " said Bill Savarino, a partner in the Washington, DC, law firm of Cohen Mohr LLP, where he specializes in email retention law, government contracts law, and security clearance issues. "That's not the case any longer. As emphasized by the recent changes to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, organizations today need retention, retrieval and production capability for all electronically stored information, not just e-mail, including point-in-time records of email, folders, calendars, contacts, notes, and tasks - with a complete audit trail of edits. The law has finally caught up to the high-tech era. Organizations have no choice but to keep pace. Ignorance is no longer an excuse."

Mimosa Systems is proud to sponsor the eDiscovery Expert Series for Microsoft Exchange. To learn more about the series and to register, visit Mimosa at: www.mimosasystems.com/webinarseries
