“…Email overload is just one facet of information overload and is prompted by the sense of having to deal with and prioritize a considerable volume of incoming messages (Szóstek, 2011). Moreover, the tasks involved in email management are myriad: once a message arrives into a users' inbox, the users must attempt to evaluate the content and urgency of the message based on visible cues such as sender name and subject line, must decide whether and when to read, reply and/or file the email, or indeed, to do nothing at all, and must engage in the actions required to respond to the email (Siu et al, 2006;Szóstek, 2011;Whittaker, Matthews, Cerruti, Badenes, & Tang, 2011). The challenges posed by the attempt to organize, store, manage and retrieve this overabundance of information can provoke sense of stress, inhibit decision-making abilities, impair work-life balance and lower productivity (Barley, Meyerson, & Grodal, 2011;Mazmanian, Orlikowski, & Yates, 2013;Waller & Ragsdell, 2012).…”
