Managing E-mail Accounts through Stigmergy

The present work describes a novel model for managing e-mail accounts both by reducing the attachment failure and reply prediction. The prediction model is based on the property of social insects known as stigmergy. Stigmergy is a mechanism of (indirect) coordination through local modifications to a shared environment. Incorporating this innovative solution, certain promising results are presented and, finally, an effort has been made to develop a plug in automated software tool for managing an individual’s e-mail account. The further scope of research in this direction has also been addressed.
