Abstract

A system and method of managing electronic messaging accounts for an organization is provided. The method comprises executing instructions on a processor at a server that: for a first user account for a first user associated to the organization, define a message space accessible through electronic devices in communication with the server. The message space accommodates peer-to-peer administration by users in the organization. The message space also provides facilities for: identifying an owner for the message space; assigning owner privileges for the owner; selectively identifying the first user account as the owner for the message space; and creating a message channel in the message space for messages between users in the organization and users in a second organization. In the method, the owner privileges follow an organization policy for the organization and provide the first user with additional privileges in managing the message space reflecting the organization policy.
