FOI Searches

[PATRICK_Kitchen]

Hello Folks

Here's a subject that has not to myu knowledge been discussed yet. I am sure in these days of FOI we all get lots of requests to perform journal searches for a perticular subject.

I recently did a journal search for our FOI department that returned over 300 entries - is there anyway that these can be extracted from the journal either onto CD, or into a PST or indeed send then to another mailbox.

To go into each one and forward them would be costly in time.

How do you handle your FOI requests ?

I'd do it via the "Baskets" in the EV Search.
Just add all elements you want to restore to a Basket and then, you can restore all those Elements to another Mailbox or in another Folder, as you like.

You can then Extract those Mails out of the Mailbox to a PST File and Burn it onto a CD if needed.

Cheers
Michel

Pardon my ignorance ... but what is an FOI Department/search?

Thanks ... Mark

Hi,

I'm presuming it's 'freedom of information' act. ie typically local country laws allowing the public certain access to government data etc.

That's tright in this case it was information on a planning application
