Embodiment Construction

[0021] will now refer to Figure 1A-11 to describe the present technology, where the figures generally relate to systems and methods for providing extensible email with rich interactive browser capabilities. Referring first to FIG. 1 , there is shown one embodiment for implementing the present technology, wherein the embodiment includes a user computing device 50 , a service provider 60 and a third party platform 70 . The service provider 60 includes a mail server 62 for sending emails to and receiving emails from the devices 50 of subscribing users. Although one server 62 is shown, other embodiments may have more than one server.

[0022] In one example of the present system, service provider 60 may be an enterprise service provider, and mail server 62 may host a web mail (webmail) user agent 64 (also referred to herein as mail proxy 64), such as the web-based Hotmail® email service. In other embodiments, mail user agent 64 may be an Outlook® messaging and collaboration cl...

Abstract

A system and method are disclosed for providing an extensible email having rich, interactive browser capabilities. The system includes a service provider for receiving extensible emails from a third party platform and presenting the emails to a user's computing device. The extensible email includes URL metadata which allows a mail user agent to fetch and run code from a third party server in order to generate the extensible email. A secure sandbox ensures that the third party code does no damage to the service provider system or the user's computing system.

Whether local or web-based, mail user agents are generally not scalable. In other words, conventional mail user agents do not allow efficient int...
