    71. Ten Tips for Taming the E-mail Problem Create a reasonable and enforceable policy. Spell out privacy expectation clearly. Require that each employee sign the policy. Issue frequent policy reminders. When the policy is broken, consult the legal department and have an immediate conversation with the employee, accompanied by a human resources representative. Don’t limit employee training to policy issues. Also include etiquette, proper use of group mailing lists, and information about recognizing scams and urban legends. Limit employee mailboxes to an appropriate size (CIOs interviewed for this article recommended a range from 15MB to 150MB depending on the type of work). Consider your potential legal liability in determining how long to store messages. Consider filtering tools, but be aware of the limitations. Install two different antivirus software packages (one for servers, one for the desktops). Teach users to distrust all attachments, particularly unexpected ones. .

    98. WAYS TO PROTECT YOURSELF 1 LEASE EQUIPMENT so that the title to the equipment transfers to the leasing company at the end of the term- along with the disposition issues. DISPOSE OF IT EQUIPMENT when it’s removed from service. BUNDLE DISPOSAL COSTS into new purchases by including the disposition of old IT assets in the RFP for equipment that replaces it. EMPTY THE IT CLOSETS: Dispose of unused, stored equipment immediately. This equipment incurs storage costs and property taxes plus disposal costs that are likely to increase over time. INCLUDE A COPY OF THE OPERATING SYSTEM when donating equipment. Machines without an operating system are likely to be discarded or shipped overseas. INCLUDE CONTRACT WORDING that prohibits the recycling vendor or its subcontractors from exporting equipment to developing countries that lack environmental regulations. REQUIRE A FULLY DOCUMENTED AUDIT TRAIL that shows what happened to each IT asset through its final disposition, whether sold, recycled or destroyed. CONDCT A DUE DILIGENCE background check on the recycling vendor and its practices that includes an on-site visit. CONSIDER DISPOSITION SERVICES from IBM, HP, Dell or other major IT equipment vendors. They charge more than smaller recyclers, but they have reputations to protect and deeper pockets if liability issues arise.
