Some important facts:

• More than 50% of data used for work by an average employee exists in his mail files – Radicati Group
• Email volume is growing at 29% per year – IDC
• 36 Billion email messages per day by 2005 – Gartner

All the above statistics indicate that email volume would always grow exponentially and the disk space & network bandwidth required for backing up these files would be huge.

Connected Data Protector has an additional module – Email Optimizer. This feature works with SendOnce and DeltaBlock technologies. It scans the pst and nsf files to check the duplicacy of contents and does not allow backing up duplicate emails and attachment files.

Only one copy of a mail and the attachment are backed up across the enterprise thereby reducing the storage space and the network bandwidth required for data storage and transfers.
