    An intro to E-mail Management

    Helping nontechnical managers calibrate expectations, learn the key issues in e-mail management and identify issues in setting corporate e-mail policies. Within an organisation, you can make e-mail highly available, reliable and auditable-if you are willing to invest enough human and technical resources toward that goal.
    However, no amount of effort and expense can make external e-mail function like your corporate mail. Part of that is intentional. Some features of corporate mail systems (such as out of office notices, read receipts, address lookup and verification) carry security concerns.

    Getting Internet e-mail to work nearly like corporate e-mail can only be done on a piecemeal basis by making special arrangements with outside partners in the specific cases where you need corporate-level e-mail functionality.

    All attempts to add reliability to SMTP after the fact (such as adding return receipt) have either failed or been withdrawn from use after massive abuse, primarily by spammers.

    Just remember: e-mail isn't guaranteed. This issue causes your e-mail administrators no end of angst. One wrote, "Boy, do I struggle getting that one through to my marketing guy, who not only expects all e-mails to definitely get to the recipient but also expects me to be able to track whether they got it, how long they read it for, etc. When I first informed him-rather forcefully-that there is no guarantee of delivery, and hence he should not have any contractual or legal obligations dependent on e-mail delivery, he thought I was just being needlessly obstructionist, possibly incompetent."

    A few more short points
    Read mail server messages before you complain. Many end users act as though e-mail were magically delivered from their computer to the recipient's computer. In reality, each message transits a number of servers along the way. If faced with a temporary failure to deliver your message to the next-in-line server, e-mail servers retry the connection.

    (They are supposed to retry in a short period of time, such as 15 or 30 minutes, but a surprising number of servers wait for as long as 12 hours.) If the retry is unsuccessful after a while (say, four hours), the mail server may send the e-mail author a status update. Eventually, the server gives up and sends a bounce message. Your users should be taught to tell the difference between the words "permanent" and "temporary" before they freak out in the direction of the e-mail administrator.

    If the message doesn't reach the intended recipient, it isn't always the fault of the technology. Sending e-mail is like dialling a phone number: if the address isn't right, your mail won't go where you want it to.

    E-mail is never really private. If you want the message contents truly to be secret, encrypt the file first, and then send it as an attachment. A mail admin may rummage through the mail queue while trying to find the cause of a server problem. If it's in plain text, it can't be secret.

    Misconceptions about e-mail

    End users make many false assumptions about the messages that land in their inboxes.

    Often, users are confused about why they received a message when their names aren't in the To: header. There are many possible answers, benign and otherwise. For example, someone could have placed the user on a Bcc list. In reality, the addresses in the To: and Cc: headers do not necessarily bear any relation to the actual list of recipient addresses. It is only by convention that mail clients place the actual recipient addresses in those headers.

    It's the less harmless messages that cause the problems.
    From the server's point of view, the only thing that matters for routing is the e-mail envelope. This is easily visualised. Grab a sheet of paper, write any name on it (say, "Esther") and fold the page into an "envelope." Write a different name on the envelope (for example, "Sandy"). The envelope will be "routed" through the post office to Sandy, independent of whatever the envelope contains.

    Applications need to look good too

    Well designed software and individualisation helps meet the demands of the ?i-generation? workforce and enhance personal productivity.
    Embedded application search, integrated communities, enhanced navigation and individualisation options are just some of the design elements and functions that can help meet the demands of the i-generation workforce and enhance personal and organisational productivity, according to a recent survey by enterprise applications player IFS.

    In a recent international survey of more than 1,000 business IT users, carried out on behalf of IFS, over a third of respondents identified the Web as providing the most intuitive user experience. Only 1 in 5 cited business applications used in the workplace as easy to use ? well behind the web and email applications (27%).

    Respondents were asked to identify the top three causes of wasted time when using enterprise software. Top of the list was learning to use different modules and applications (20%), searching for relevant information held in the application (19%) came second and difficulties moving through business processes that are not grouped together or ordered in a logical way (14%) was third.

    ?One of the key reasons for installing enterprise software is to simplify the running of business processes so that decision making can be improved. Well-designed business applications that incorporate elements like search, networking, easy navigation and individualisation are what people are now demanding in the workplace ? based on their personal use of the web. Organisations who respond have the opportunity to remove frustrating time-wasters for staff involved at all stages, providing opportunities for them to be more productive both individually and collectively. Improved usability really can make a difference to the company?s revenue, making the employees more efficient and productive because it?s easier to do the job,? said Ian Fleming, Managing Director, IFS, Middle East, Africa & South Asia.

    Respondents were also frustrated by the time wasted dealing with difficulties in transferring data between systems (13%) and navigating around and between different applications (11%).

    ?94%of the IT professionals surveyed readily identified areas where business applications take longer to perform specific tasks than they should. Bringing features and functions common in consumer websites into the business world was a way respondents identified as being able to save time. Business software buyers should be looking for applications that have incorporated such features into their application design now.?

    ?Just one example from IFS is the enterprise application search we have embedded at the heart of our systems. Our search capability, not only performs with the ease of a Web tool, but adds the business context to the data to make it more relevant to answer the question being posed ? be that a customer order inquiry, status report or request from the board,? Fleming said.

    IFS Aurora interface


    i-phone ERP?

    The developments seen in the consumer sector are now more important than ever for enterprise software makers and users. Employees want the same usability they have in the latest cell phones, iPods and on the web, available to them in the office.

    IFS?Aurora, an innovative enterprise application user experience is designed to adapt to users? needs and ways of working. Offered as a new ergonomic design, embedded enterprise application search and integrated rich media is aimed to dramatically improve user interaction with IFS Applications, significantly improving productivity. The Aurora user interface is available as an add-on to the IFS Applications 7.5.

    The technology, according to the company is result of IFS? long-term focus on usability and productivity. Design and ergonomics are becoming key to increasing usability, which is essential in getting more from an enterprise software system.

    ?The bland look, feel and function of enterprise applications in the workplace is no longer acceptable,? Fleming said. ?The developments seen in the consumer sector mean that design in enterprise software is now more important than ever. Employees want the same usability they have in the latest cell phones, iPods and on the web, available to them in the office. Aurora delivers an intuitive interface that engages the user and allows them to work on their own terms.

    ?Independent studies show that ?difficulty to search for and find information? and ?poor navigation around and between applications? are among the top time wasters when using enterprise software. Aurora is built to address both of these with solutions. ?By embedding enterprise application search functionality into the business system itself, the search algorithms can take into account all the nuances of the data held in the application and deliver truly relevant results. Key information is found quicker and easier as a result,? he said.

    Aurora is a Rich Internet Application; Web deployed using .Net and SOA technology. The interface uses a range of new navigation technologies such as adaptable link pages, contextual breadcrumb navigation, and visual recent screens. These combine to deliver a customisable working environment that encourages user collaboration. The interface also includes rich media notes, in-application document viewing for common file types such as PDF and Word and the ability to integrate web content into the work.

    Five Web 2.0 application development lessons for enterprise IT

    Keeping users fully in the loop can cut IT costs while boosting software quality.

    Image Yahoo's Flickr unit reported recently that the latest update to the photo-sharing Web site went live just before 5 p.m one evening with nine changes made by three of its developers. The "deployment" was the 36th new release in a week where 627 changes were made by 21 developers. Such constant tweaking?called a "perpetual beta" in the Web 2.0 world?is common for companies that build applications for a consumer market that's always in flux.
    Quick, incremental updates, along with heavy user involvement, are key characteristics of an emerging software development paradigm championed by a new generation of Web 2.0 start-ups.
    The new process, which some champions call "application development 2.0," contrasts markedly with the traditional corporate waterfall process (see box for details) that separates projects into several distinct phases, ranging from requirements to maintenance. Nonetheless, application development 2.0 can bring significant benefits to corporate IT shops if managers and developers are willing to change.
    "Sometimes enterprise organisations tend to look at these Web 2.0-focused places and say they are not very disciplined," said Jeffrey Hammond, an analyst at Forrester Research. "That is not the case. They have built discipline into the process that allows them to be very reactive?a [good] lesson for IT organisations.
    Based on interviews with analysts and executives of Web 2.0 firms, we compiled a list of five ways that corporate IT managers can benefit from using Web 2.0 development processes. Here they are:
    1. Break the barrier between developers and end users, and involve users in quality assurance processes.
    Applications are inherently built better when developers are not insulated from the people who use their applications. Direct user complaints or compliments are far better motivators for developers than viewing PowerPoint slides with bar charts representing user desires in a meeting room.
    William Gribbons, director of the graduate program in human factors at Bentley College said that large companies could benefit financially by using Web 2.0 techniques to develop applications for employees.
    "Companies often think their [internal] applications are different because they're used by employees [who] are compensated for the pain and suffering they are enduring," he said. That pain and suffering, however, can boost training costs and employee turnover and cut productivity?all a hit to the corporate bottom line.
    Corporate development teams should focus on close interaction with internal users to gather requirements, and to create a controlled, systematic way to observe users interacting with prototypes, Gribbons suggested.
    2. Keep it simple
    While many consumer-focused Web 2.0 applications may seem simple, that simplicity is usually the result of hard work by developers working hand in hand with users.
    Developers have begun to understand that it's better to build a very simple service and then add application programming interfaces to provide complex services.
    Features can actually be obstacles. The more powerful an application is, the more specialised it is, and thus with increased power, its intended audience shrinks.
    Many times, traditional enterprise IT shops will identify a need and develop multiple ways of meeting it when the user would be happy with one. But without constant interaction with users, developers often are unaware of the yearning for simple user interfaces.
    3. Stick to the script
    Web 2.0 companies are partial to dynamic scripting languages like Ruby, Python, Perl and PHP, finding them better choices for their projects than Sun Microsystems?s Java or Microsoft?s .Net.
    Forrester's Hammond noted that once developers become proficient in one of the dynamic languages, they can build new applications quickly?30% to 40% faster than with Java or .Net.
    4. Release early and often
    Update sites often, usually several times a day. The constant interaction with users provides developers with almost immediate notification of bugs. In addition, many Web 2.0 companies run so-called shadow versions of their sites, which help determine how users respond to specific feature updates. A report compiled by the shadow site could show, for example, how often users log off the site or whether the amount of financial information uploaded by users has dropped.
    5. Let the users, not the developers, determine new features
    Top Internet companies such as Amazon and Google release new features to small subsets of users and then compare their feedback to control groups. The companies say the method provides much better validation for new features and products than customer surveys or even discussions between users and product managers.
    Enterprise Shift
    While most large companies are unlikely to flock quickly to the Web 2.0 development techniques?and some applications would not be a good fit for this methodology, observers acknowledged?some are starting to realise the merits of these new processes.
    In the survey of developers taking part in a recent TopCoder on-line coding competition, an overwhelmingly majority (70%) of the respondents said that traditional corporate development teams could benefit from Web 2.0 techniques, specifically the incremental feature releases, quick user feedback loops and quality assurance programs that include users.
    What's more, 57% of the respondents said that problem-solving and analytical skills will be key requirements for next generation developers, while 18% cited the need to work with on-line communities. Meanwhile, 24% said that code generation is the key long-range development skill.
    The corporate use of application development 2.0 techniques?especially the focus on the user?could be critical to reducing the number of IT development projects that are scrapped before completion.
    More about the Waterfall model
    Once upon a time, software development consisted of a programmer writing code to solve a problem or automate a procedure. Nowadays, systems are so big and complex that teams of architects, analysts, programmers, testers and users must work together to create the millions of lines of custom-written code that drive our enterprises. To manage this, a number of system development life cycle (SDLC) models have been created: waterfall, fountain, spiral, build and fix, rapid prototyping, incremental, and synchronise and stabilise.

    The oldest of these, and the best known, is the waterfall: a sequence of stages in which the output of each stage becomes the input for the next. These stages can be characterised and divided up in different ways, including the following:


    Project planning, feasibility study: Establishes a high-level view of the intended project and determines its goals.

    Systems analysis, requirements definition: Refines project goals into defined functions and operation of the intended application. Analyses end-user information needs.

    Systems design: Describes desired features and operations in detail, including screen layouts, business rules, process diagrams, pseudocode and other documentation.

    Implementation: The real code is written here.

    Integration and testing: Brings all the pieces together into a special testing environment, then checks for errors, bugs and interoperability.

    Acceptance, installation, deployment: The final stage of initial development, where the software is put into production and runs actual business.

    Maintenance: What happens during the rest of the software's life: changes, correction, additions, moves to a different computing platform and more. This, the least glamorous and perhaps most important step of all, goes on seemingly forever.
    But it doesn't work!
    The waterfall model is well understood, but it's not as useful as it once was. In a 1991 Information Center Quarterly article, Larry Runge says that SDLC "works very well when we are automating the activities of clerks and accountants. It doesn't work nearly as well, if at all, when building systems for knowledge workers -- people at help desks, experts trying to solve problems, or executives trying to lead their company into the Fortune 100."
    Another problem is that the waterfall model assumes that the only role for users is in specifying requirements, and that all requirements can be specified in advance. Unfortunately, requirements grow and change throughout the process and beyond, calling for considerable feedback and iterative consultation. Thus many other SDLC models have been developed.
    The fountain model recognises that although some activities can't start before others -- such as you need a design before you can start coding -- there's a considerable overlap of activities throughout the development cycle.
    The spiral model emphasises the need to go back and reiterate earlier stages a number of times as the project progresses. It's actually a series of short waterfall cycles, each producing an early prototype representing a part of the entire project. This approach helps demonstrate a proof of concept early in the cycle, and it more accurately reflects the disorderly, even chaotic evolution of technology.
