- Email has become one of the driving forces behind connecting businesses to the Internet. It offers fast, economical transfer of messages anywhere in the world. As local telephone calls are free in most parts of the South Africa, messages destined to long-distance destinations become effectively free to send. Outside of the South Africa, local calls tend to be chargeable; therefore the email system can reduce the telephone bill considerably. The substantial cost-cutting associated with these facts have encouraged many businesses to invest in an implementation of email services.
- Email has considerable benefits over traditional paper based memo’s and postal systems:
- Messages can be sent at any time across the world as easily as across the office, to a group of people or a single recipient, without the sender leaving their desk.
- Messages can be logged, ensuring some form of record is held, and messages are stored when the recipient is away from their desk.
- The recipient can collect their mail when they want, from wherever they are.
- Mobile users can collect their mail whilst out visiting customers, or at other locations.
- The person you are sending the message to gets it directly, without passing through any third party.
- Environmentally friendly! Unless requested, email messages require no paper or resources other than storage space on a computer disk drive.
