Email retention and documentation retention are different with some similarities.
The document retention policy is the be all, end all of SOX compliance policies (I am sure, not certain)
In this particular case, I assume that their email retention policy is to protect mail server storage capacity, with the individual's obligation to save important emails as a word doc to comply with the uber records/document retention policy.
Seems like a highly annoying and unproductive policy you have there.
Create a local pop3/smtp server, forward your emails there.
Or.... forward them back to yourself and keep resetting the timestamp:)
My first reaction to this was "what would Edward Tufte do?"
I found the following link discussing the topic:
http://www.edwardtufte.com/bboard/q-and-a-fetch-msg?msg_id=0000M0&topic_id=1&topic=Ask+E.T.
The article discussed the best is a dark background with a bright font, but the conversation seemed to be too "environmental" as it it depends on the viewers local light setting instead of being generally independent of any local lighting.
What if I am "forced" to operate using a light/bright background and darker contrasting font?
In my opinion, experience, and local preference I have found dark grey font as easy on my eyes. It is my opinion but I do a lot of reading online with many fonts.
