...students will probably compose and send far more e-mail messages than memos or letters. Students should understand that e-mail messages have a unique place in the communications continuum and, therefore, their own rules. While the format of an e-mail message may resemble that of a memo, each element presents special requirements in an electronic medium. The interactivity of e-mail offers both opportunities and constraints to writers and readers. A special etiquette also applies to e-mail, especially the need to avoid flaming and spamming and to check e-mail often. While writers often think their office e-mail is private, employers who own the systems have been upheld legally in their right to monitor e-mail for business reasons, and thus students should pay careful attention to the content and tone of their messages. Assigning e-mail projects in class helps students prepare for this important communications medium, work effectively in teams, and correspond with corporations as part of their classroom research. Annotation Marian M. Extejt, Professor at John Carroll University, creates a framework for the medium of email, in which she explores the basic aspects that are required to effectively use email. The author decides to show how different email is than a memo even though it may sometimes look like one, by email’s ability to be sent instantly and to be broadcast to many recipients simultaneously (58). The way that email should be used effectively in a business setting is thoroughly...

...EMAIL TRACING AND SPOOFING Abstract : E-mail spoofing is the forgery of an e-mail header so that the message appears to have originated from someone or somewhere other than the actual source. Distributors of spam often use spoofing in an attempt to get recipients to open, and possibly even respond to, their solicitations. Spoofing can be used legitimately. Classic examples of senders who might prefer to disguise the source of the e-mail include a sender reporting mistreatment by a spouse to a welfare agency or a "whistle-blower" who fears retaliation. However, spoofing anyone other than yourself is illegal in some jurisdictions. In this report we will study some ways of email spoofing as well as ways of tracing the spoofed email back. 1. INTRODUCTION Spoofing refers to the act of using imitation to make parody of another work of media or entertainment. Similarly, in the digital world too, the word spoofing is used to highlight the act of tricking and fooling the unaware netizens through utterly believable imitations of trusted service providers. Spoofing is basically of 4 types: 1) URL spoofing 2) Referral spoofing 3) Caller ID spoofing 4) E-mail address spoofing In this report we will be dealing with only email address spoofing.This will include a detailed study of the techniques used in spoofing and the techniques used to trace the spammers indulging in the malicious act of email spoofing. 2. EMAIL SPOOFING Email spoofing is the act of sending an email that...

...CIS 120 Assignment 1. Create a new e-mail message Start a new message On the File menu, point to New, and then click Mail Message. Keyboard shortcut: To create a new e-mail message, press CTRL+SHIFT+M. In the Subject box, type the subject of the message. 2. Add recipients Enter the recipients' names in the To, Cc, or Bcc box. Separate the names with a semicolon (;). The Bcc: field helps you deal with the problems created by Cc:. As it is the case with Cc:, a copy of the message goes to every single email address appearing in the Bcc: field. The difference is that neither the Bcc: field itself nor the email addresses in it appear in any of the copies and not in the message sent to the person in the To: field either. The only recipient address that will be visible to all recipients is the one in the To: field. So, to keep maximum anonymity you can put your own address in the To: field and use Bcc: exclusively to address your message. 3. Change the font On the Message tab, in the Basic Text group, you can select the font, font size, font style (bold, italic, and underline), font color, and text highlighting. On the Format tab, in the Font group, you can select the font and font size; increase or decrease the size by one increment; change the font style (bold, italic, underline, strikethrough); change the case, the font color, and the text highlighting; and remove all font formatting. On the Mini toolbar that appears when you select text, you can select the font...

...Aberdeen Abstract: This article examines the application of the postal acceptance rule to email acceptances. Different views have been argued against the application of traditional rule like the postal acceptance rule, which was established in 1818 as a legal norm in contract formation to modern communications like the email. The paper presents the arguments and rationale behind the application of this rule and contends its applicability to the modern communication via e-mail. The paper posits that email is not an instantaneous method of communication, but can be viewed as a digital version of the normal post and thus the postal acceptance rule should apply to this kind of contracting. Keywords: E-commerce, Email, Contract law, Conclusion of Contract, Postal Acceptance Rule. 1. Introduction The conclusion of distance contracts has been one of the controversial issues in the law of contract formation. It raises some question marks, especially with regard to the type of rules that should govern the timing of contract formation. More specifically, a strong debate has been emerged recently as to whether the postal acceptance rule may apply in respect to contracting through email. This paper is then divided into two main parts. The first one examines the justifications of the postal acceptance rule, while the second part analyses thoroughly the application of postal acceptance rules to email contracting. 2.

...business activities. Task 1 Error messages Error messages occur when the internet alert system providers have to inform uses of an error that has already occurred. These error messages usually shown in a dialogue box but they can also be shown in the form of a notification or a bubble or a balloon. Minor errors may be displayed in a status bar, a small portion of an application's window that can display brief messages to the user. An example of a error message is shown below; If you save a document with a unrecognised name then you will get message asking you to save it with a valid name. Task 2 Undelivered emails Just like an invalid document name if you do not send an email to a correct email address then you will get an email from Microsoft informing you that your email is not sent so you must always ensure that you have entered a valid email address. There can be other reasons why emails are not delivered for example the hardware or software problems with the email server may have prevented email delivery or the email address may no longer be valid. Or if the email has an attachment then it may be not be delivered because of the attachment's extension or size. Before contacting the ICT helpdesk we can do several checks such as; * Check your email settings * Open a webpage and check if your internet connection works * Call the person you are emailing to find out if her or his mailbox is full * Check the email error report for explanations of the...

...The Future of Email Marketing Along with mobile, new tools and technologies are changing email marketing—is your brand ready? While email remains, for the time being, the most cost-efficient way to connect with customers, many marketers worry that recent developments could hamper its effectiveness. Thanks to recent changes made by various email service providers (ESPs) and the tremendous growth of mobile devices, email marketing is evolving significantly, leaving marketers with little to do but adapt to the advent of new tools and technology in a classic case of sink or swim. Throughout the past year, major changes have occurred in the email marketing realm. For one, many ESPs have changed the rules for email deliverability. Since the new engagement policies took effect, email providers including Google, Yahoo!, Microsoft, and AOL began regulating deliverability based on past engagement. This means that if consumers do not regularly open and click on emails sent from businesses, the ESPs may stop delivering emails from that company, and may divert those messages into the spam folder, even if the user has subscribed to the content in the past. Google, specifically, has made some big adjustments on its own as well. Email billers and marketers were sent into a frenzy when Google announced the introduction of tabs to Gmail inboxes. The objective was to make it easier for users to unclutter their mailboxes by moving certain marketing messages out of their primary inbox and filing...

...Email Timeline (notes) 1965: first concept of email… there was a CTSS (Compatible Time-Sharing System) in the MIT Computation Center. So the MIT had many registered users and most of them used the CTSS service. Then they wanted to share information to each other in new ways. So they had this “common file” place in the disk. What they would do is they would create files that they named like TO TOM or to whoever… and put them in those common file place. Then the person who will receive the message could log into the CTSS and search for that file. 1971: Ray Tomlinson (he invented the email, not because someone asked him to. He just thought that it would be a really cool idea.) sends the first electronic mail. Not through internet, cuz it wasn’t invented it… it was through a network called the ARPANET (Advanced Research Projects Agency Network). It said “QWERTYUIOP.” He worked for a company called (forgot… BBM or something…) which was hired by the United States Defense Department to create the internet in 1968. 1976: Queen Elizabeth II becomes the first head of a state to send an email!! She was demonstrating networking technology and she sent the email from the Royal Signs and Radar Establishment (RSRE). 1983: MCI Mail is the first commercial email service (through a server), and it is introduced to the public!! It was a service that allowed people to sent electronic text-based messages to other people with MCI Mail. Later on it allowed people to send messages to users of...

...Analyzing messages In business today most of the communication that goes on is completed electronically. The use of technology in the form of e-mail, text, and video chat has changed how business is conducted. There are advantages and disadvantages to using virtual communication. Examples of the advantages of virtual communication are the increase in productivity, ability to work at home or in the field without going to the office, being able to connect anywhere at any time with staff or business clients and having access to the information in the office on smaller media, such as a cell phone or tablet. Some of the disadvantages are being available 24/7, loss of personal communication and interaction with other staff members and the possibility of misunderstanding or miscommunicating messages. According to Deborah Roebuck, when writing for business it is essential that the writer formulate the writing prior to sending it with the process entailing “determining your purpose, analyzing your audience, organizing your thoughts, establishing a logical order, constructing your draft and editing and polishing your writing using the 7 Cs” (Roebuck, 2006, p. 31). To communicate effectively in business it is important to create or follow a system such as Deborah’s to create readable and purposeful communication. In the health care field there is utilization of virtual communication however most of it pertains to patient care and necessary communication via e-mail. I...

...turn improve morale, productivity and efficiency (Grinder and McMaster, 1993, p12). When communicating a good news message, the receiver needs to clearly understand what the good news is and why it happened. This can be achieved in varying levels of detail via the use of the appropriate communication medium. This report will examine 3 of these mediums and which situation is best for their use, that being email, verbal/AV presentation and posters. Recommendations for the most appropriate medium for this message will be made at the end of this report. Analysis Skills associated with verbal communication such the words chosen or the tone used are also important when communicating messages especially those of an urgent, important or sensitive nature. Professional messages avoid the use of Instant Messaging contractions such as ‘LOL’, ‘ROFL’ or slang like ‘totes’ (Markel, 2012, p101), but this doesn't mean a cold serious tone either. Strive for an inclusive conversational tone that invites the reader to be engaged and feel a sense of ownership with what they are reading. The use of the ‘You’ strategy of inclusive language can help foster a sense of belonging and unity amongst staff. This is most effective in emails where there is only a limited amount of writing space but enough to connect, communicate and impress. Email Email is a fast and effective...

...THE ROLE OF SMS TEXT MESSAGES Ruth Rettie, School of Marketing, Kingston University, United Kingdom Matthew Brum, MBA student, Kingston University, United Kingdom Email contact: R.Rettie@Kingston.ac.uk ABSTRACT This paper explores the marketing role of SMS text messages. While Internet based m-commerce has been disappointing, commercial applications for SMS are developing rapidly. The conceptual framework compares SMS to telemarketing and email marketing, and describes the key features of this new medium. Five distinct SMS business models are identified and discussed. We used quantitative research among mobile users to assess attitudes to SMS marketing. Most respondents were concerned about junk messages and wanted to control incoming messages. Initial attitudes to advertising in text messages were negative, but many were prepared to accept advertising in exchange for discounts or promotional offers. INTRODUCTION The development of Internet based m-commerce has been disappointing: restricted sites, slow download, small screens, and the limited number of handsets, currently constrain commercial development. At the same time companies are beginning to recognize the potential of SMS (Short Message Service) text messages, as a low cost, high impact communication medium, that can be received by almost all mobile phone users. Several companies are adopting highly innovative m-commerce strategies using SMS text messaging. 15 billion SMS messages (Cyberatlas 2001a) were...

... Strayer University MGT 505 Managerial and Bus Communications Dr. Stephanie Lyncheski November 18, 2012 1. Identify the communication problems with the email. Effective written communication takes time and skill since such a small portion of our communication is contained in the words themselves. For business purposes, managers must deliver their message clearly, succinctly and effectively if they want to be successful. Poorly written messages create confusion or fail to achieve their intended purpose. Bobby Johnson’s task is organizing the retirement gathering for friend and co-worker Joe Banyon. He drafted a quick email to inform 50 people that the party in Joe’s honor would be the upcoming Friday. However, Bobby failed to utilize his effective writing skills, delivering an email lacking many details as well as posing many questions from 50 others in receipt of his email. I have made an assumption that Bobby may have been in a hurry and lacks experience in the party planning aspect. He forgot one of the most important features of the letter and that is the date the party will take place. He did mention that it would be on Friday at 6pm but an emailed memo should serve as a reference for future planning and scheduling. Another important factor is that he assumed that everyone in receipt of the email would know what and where City Café is located. Possible questions that would accompany this issue are: if the party offers a full course dinner or just drinks and...
