Amen, I am sure my corp. has TERABYTES of useless mail stored on file servers. I have very similar arguments with people.
Me "So please tell me why you think you needed ALL the restaurant menus from 1999"
Them "Because I don't know how to turn the rule off in outlook"
Me thinks how did this person get to be FVP or whatever.
Myself of course keep mail for six months for CYA purposes and then purge to folder for archiving (read deletion).
Personal mail is different usually gets purged every couple of weeks or so unless it has some serious relevance.
