In the landmark case of LORRAINE versus MARKEL AMERICAN INSURANCE COMPANY, 2007 WL 1300739 in defining court admissibility standards for email and burden of proof it was observed that, "For email evidence, the burden of proof lies with the party who wishes to employ an email record as evidence of an electronic transaction and therefore such records must be in a court admissible format. This will require independent verification of the components mathematically associated to wit; (a) The original message content and all attachments: The uniform time (not the sender's desktop computer time) of transmission (sending and receipt) of the message and (b) The underlying transmission metadata that for court purposes serves as the recorded digital snap shot of both servers' sender and recipient!

Counsel further relied on OPEN MEMO TO MARK ZUCKERBERG, CEO, FACEBOOK FROM ZAFAR KHAN, CEO, Post where it was observed that a printed email (from ones' sent folder, inbox or archive) can easily be denied admission into evidence by simply challenging contents authenticity, time of sending or whether the email was in fact delivered and secondly a copy of an email sent to yourself or another person has no bearing as to whether a copy was also delivered to your intended recipient. Thirdly electronically stored copies of an email in an archive of the sender or recipient only provide a record of what the archiving party "claims" to have happened. Even if the archiving parties can forensically prove the content in their archive is authentic, they will be unable to prove delivery or timing of receipt should 7
