Who is responsible for capturing the record?
In most cases the sender is responsible (as the originator of the record). He/she should capture the email in a repository or print and file it when he/she create the message. When the sender is not a JPL person, the recipient becomes responsible for capturing the email as a JPL record. If the email is part of an ongoing discussion, use your judgment to determine at what stages in the discussion a copy of the email should be captured, based on the significance of new information.
