Property managers struggle to preserve tenant/vendor email threads as accessible unit files when staff leave, losing context and requiring IT intervention.

Existing methods (Outlook mailboxes, shared inboxes, PMS/DMS) fail to survive staff turnover without license issues or loss of context; PSTs are cumbersome and not unit-file-based.
