      It's one of those things that there is no system that works for everyone in e-mail. To do it proper you need to move from e-mails to ticketing systems and let e-mails forward to the system and use it to reply from etc.

      In e-mail itself, the 2 methods I've seen work;
      a)1 each person gets a colour, when a message is picked up or allocated to/by that person, the colour is updated
      b)Create folders for each person, drag any items to work on into the folder and leave as unread in there. Any mail not in a folder is yet to be picked up by anyone.

            The Collaboration App getting all the buzz at the moment is Slack,

            https://slack.com/

            Don't think it's exactly what you're after.

            If you want to move beyond e-mail there's a whole ton of solutions out there. Asana, ZenDesk, Flow, all come to mind and can often integrate with each other. Essentially you'd be turning e-mail into a ticket/task/item, and then working on/through that.

            The slack video is a nice 3 minute video if nothing else 🙂

                Replace, the SSD has made my 2010 MBP feel like new. I seriously cannot recommend this upgrade enough, my MBP was basically a paperweight and now it runs like a dream, and the fan has not kicked in once since I upgraded either.

                Yeah, I saw this happen! My early 2009 Mac Pro is letterally  reborn with a new 250GB samsung SSD. ah, don't forget to catch trimenabler, it makes believe your mac that the new ssd is  Apple and activates trim functions!

                    So I bought the iPhone 6, the small one. I left the iPhone + because it is too big compared to me.
                    6=ok, I keep it in my front pocket, on the left.
                    I don't like android devices for one reason only: the audio apps (synthesizers, music studios etc …). Too few and too much latency! Apple devices are pro level audio units.

                    iPhone 6 has left me puzzled. Its look is not much of a surprise: it is nothing more than a giant iPod Touch. And the camera lens sticking out is a drop in style.

                    I do not believe that the supremacy of Apple is going to last much longer. Speaking of design, I fell in love with the Huawei Ascend P7. I find it wonderful!
                    When I saw it I thought: this is the future!

                      Delete everything I've written above. I made ​​a mistake. iPhone 6 is the best phone on the market. Apple is the present for sure, and maybe the future as well. Huawey is cute, but has a long way to go.

                        I jumped ship for 36 hours, tried so hard to love the Sony z3c but the 6 just won in every single way for me. Glad I have android a chance but never again.

                          One of the guys I work with was recently given a brand new Windows Nokia top of the line phone. He lasted 2 weeks. Said it was the best advertising for iPhone he's ever experienced. Went out about bought a phone retail as apposed to having to use company provided windows phone.

                            So funny how individual our experiences are. Apple has been a complete train wreck for me and many of my friends since 7.0, and I've had a pretty good experience (with some compromises, but everything generally works) on a top of the line Windows phone.

                            Think it, be it.

                              Tomorrow's the day of the next event. Hoping for some good news on hardware and software.

                              Interestingly enough I converted another guy to Mac this week. Unintentionally. When I started @ my workplace I was literally the first mac in the entire company. Just over 18 months in and there's at least 5-10% of the company rocking macs, seemingly gaining at least 1-2 users a month who are buying and using their own hardware. I love it.

                                      Apple should at least take you out to dinner and a movie before selling you a mini. 4GB or RAM, now soldered on. $100 extra to get a usable amount of RAM (8GB). They went digging around an antique store and found some 5400 RPM spinning disks. You have to pay $250 to upgrade that nonsense to a Fusion Drive. So now you're at $850 for an entry-level desktop running a processor from 2009. That's simply not acceptable.

                                      Think it, be it.

                                        ^My parent's Mini has been running since 2007 and has not ever missed a beat. It's been the best desktop I've ever bought. And I have no idea how in the hell a spinning disk has lasted so long. I'm tempted to get my folks another one for christmas this year.

                                          Mine's been great too, but sticking your customers with decade-old (being literal here) storage technology when you're supposed to be a premium marque is a slap in the face.
