Microsoft vowed to battle on in the case, which is being closely watched by Internet firms eager to assure users around the world that their private information is not being freely shared with US authorities.

"The only issue that was certain this morning was that the District Court?s decision would not represent the final step in this process," Microsoft general counsel Brad Smith said in an email reply to an AFP inquiry after the ruling by US District Judge Loretta Preska.

"We will appeal promptly and continue to advocate that people's email deserves strong privacy protection in the US and around the world."
