1306 - Summary/Objective
1307 -
130701 - Merrill showed how he uses DEC's email system, relative to the
130702 - issues we discussed yesterday, on 940106. ref SDS 1 0001
130703 -
130704 - He will write a memo to compare using email and the Internet at DEC,
130705 - with the SDS & POIMS scope statement, ref OF 1 0001, which I
130706 - submitted today.
130707 -
130708 - Users send email from a terminal in monochrome 80 column text mode.
130709 -
130710 - Documents can be identified by subject, which appears to be an
130711 - unstructured list the User creates as needed.  It appeared in the
130712 - brief time we had that most of the subjects are names of business
130713 - entities, similar to a rollidex, rather than identifying company work
130714 - objectives. Merrill thinks subjects can be sub-divided, but he has not
130715 - had enough time to try it.
130716 - ..
130717 - Document retrieval seems fast.
130718 -
130719 - The system will report if someone has read their mail.
130720 -
130721 - It is mainly for intra-company communications.  Printed correspondence
130722 - for external organizations is produced by a dedicated wordprocessing
130723 - group, from text created on the system.
130724 -
130725 -      He said the system can conntect to the "Internet" for external
130726 -      written communications.
130727 -
130728 - DEC's system has a scheduling tool which Merrill has not used yet. He
130729 - uses a notepad to write out the 4 - 8 main things he wants to
130730 - accomplish each day.  While we were examining the Schedule module, he
130731 - indicated it might be helpful.
