Description

  • Every change to a TMail results in a TMail Changeset.
  • TMail Changesets are sequentially numbered
  • A TMail is an object shared by all the associated Users (Writers).
  • When a User is first added to a TMail, a corresponding private TMail Pin is automatically created for the User.
  • For every TMail Changeset, a Message is sent to all Users who are the associated Writers when a Changeset is created.

In this example:

  • TMail-0105 has 3 Writers (Ron, Kevin and Jill) and 5 Changesets so far.
  • There will already be 3 private TMail Pins for Ron, Kevin and Jill respectively.
    • Ron.TMail-Pin-0105
    • Kevin.TMail-Pin-0105
    • Jill.TMail-Pin-0105
  • When TMail-0105.Changeset-6 is created, 3 private messages are sent to Ron, Kevin and Jill respectively.
    • Ron.TMail-Pin-0105.Message-6
    • Kevin.TMail-Pin-0105.Message-6
