Our organisation did not know how to work with this new medium. Email could only be recieved on one single computer.The it-supervisor had to print it out confidentially, drop it into an envelope, and write the name of the sender and recipient on it, and seal it. Then it was brought to the mail desk to have it registered in the mail register, as any regular paper mail. The envelop was stamped with the current date and time, and put in a distribution folder. An office messenger then delivered the folders to recieving departments, who then for each mail recieved entered a time and signature in the mail register. Any mail leaving the organisation also had to pass through the mail register. Since outgoing envelopes were sealed, we did not send emails.Things have changed since then:-)
Our first colaboration system was installed in 2003. Our organisation does not yet know how to work effectively with this system:-(
