            Abstract : 
The European Commius Project aims at enabling small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to collaborate easily on the level of system, semantic and process interoperability by just the use of e-mail communication. This will be achieved by enrichment of incoming e-mails, depending on their contents (semantic interoperability), with additional information. Furthermore, recommendations of expedient further steps will be provided to process the e-mail (process interoperability). This demo-paper will give a short overview of a prototype developed in the course of the Commius Project.
