Yep. Companies only need access to stored data. So encrypt decrypted email
with a company revocery key only when storing into a local folder. Prevent
company recoverable email from leaving the company. Mailers can simply
remove this special packet before mailing.
This guarantees recovery on storage and prevents security flaws in
communciation.
