Your request is too broad in quantity of individual email accounts to be searched and date range.  For reference, the University general limits the amount of pages per OPRA request to be approximately 200; the way your request is currently worded, it would yield thousands of pages of requests.  Please refine your request in order for the University to process it.
In order for our office to process the request, please provide a response to the above clarification. If we do not receive a clarification within seven (7) business days, we will consider this request withdrawn and closed.
