Email
Responder Upgraded to Version 2.4
We have continued to improve our premiere e-mail response management
package. Email Responder dramatically reduces the time needed to answer
customer service e-mails. It is designed for support teams to work efficiently
together. Each message is analyzed as it arrives, and automatically assigned to
a representative or group. Replies use prewritten templates, avoiding
repetitive typing. Mail that used to take hours to answer is handled in
minutes! Sophisticated reports help you analyze your customer service process
and your business as a whole.
Version 2.4 includes all these improvements:
- Intelligent Automated Replies: The
software can now recommend a template to use based on the contents of the
message.
- Multi-Language Spell Checking:
E-mails can be spell checked in six different languages: English,
French, German, Polish, Portuguese, and Spanish.
- Message Followup Reminders:
A new built-in feature reminds Email
Responder users to follow up on specific messages.
-
Database Backup and Restore: The Email Responder database can now be
easily backed up and restored by the Administrator.
-
Simplified Setup:
New wizard-based setup makes installing and configuring Email Responder a
breeze!

Featured Article—Talking Computers and Why We Love Them
When a computer "reads" a document and turns it into spoken words, we call
it "text to speech". The artificial production of human speech has been
possible for many years. Only recently has voice quality improved to the point
where it is difficult to tell between a talking computer and human speech. This
has led to many new applications for text to speech software.
How does text to speech work?
There are two components to
every text to speech tool. First, a "speech engine" program analyzes the text
(including the punctuation), and synthesizes the sounds of the words, pauses,
and intonation.

Video Desk: How to Estimate Video Storage Requirements?
JFrinak's Question:
Do you have any guidelines or rules of thumb to help estimate how much
storage a particular video project might require?
For example, if converting the video to Flash for playback, how much storage
might a 2 min, 5 min, 10 min, 20 min, 30 min, or 1 hour video presentation need?
Thanks for any insight.
Answer:
A general rule of thumb is that one minute of video will take up 4
megabytes of your storage space. Thus, a 5 minute movie will be about 20 mb, and
a one hour movie about 240. Our least expensive plan ($19.95/month) would allow
you to store about 25 minutes of Flash video. The 25 minutes can be a single
file or spread over multiple Flash files.
