The present invention provides a novel system and method for managing electronic communications. In one embodiment, a mail server is coupled to a client and a policy server. For an email outbound from the client, the email is first sent to the policy server which applies a policy against the email. If the email complies with the policy, the policy server generates a report which is attached to the email. The mail server is configured to refuse to send the outbound email without a report that indicates the email complies with the policy.
