Abstract
In an approach to action assignment and tracking, a computer receives a first email from a first computing device, where the first email includes at least one action assigned by a sender of the first email to at least one recipient of the first email. The computer determines whether the sender specified a due date for the action. The computer determines whether the sender specified one or more time intervals for a status update of the action. In response to determining the sender specified at least one of a due date for the action and one or more time intervals for a status update of the action, the computer initiates a timer. In response to determining the sender specified one or more time intervals for a status update of the action, the computer provides a status of the action to the sender at the one or more time intervals.
