Abstract

In some examples, a computing device may receive, from an email server, an email rule comprising conditions and actions and determine a subset of archived emails stored on the computing device that satisfy the conditions. The computing device may perform the actions to the subset of archived emails, such as placing a legal hold on the subset of archived emails, creating and sending copies of the subset of archived emails to the email server, or deleting, from the computing device, the subset of archived emails. After determining that a user is attempting to perform a prohibited action on (e.g., delete, edit, forward) an email of the subset of archived emails, the computing device may perform a protective action, such as logging the user out of an email account, preventing the user from logging in to the email account, automatically sending an email to an administrator or the like.
