Problems solved by technology

Furthermore, because the creation of such email filters can be cumbersome, email filters with different combinations of intended sender / recipients are often not as quickly created and / or modified as desired by users

[0054]Other implementations use removable storage devices, such as floppy disks, flash drives, and their corresponding magnetic disk drives, as persistent storage devices 502 . Like persistent storage 502, system memory 504 is a read and write storage device. However, unlike storage device 502, system memory 504 is a volatile read and write memory, such as random access memory. System memory 504 stores some of the instructions and data that the processor needs to run. In some implementations, the procedures of the subject disclosure are stored in system memory 504 , persistent storage 502 and / or ROM 510 . For example, various memory locations include instructions for filtering email messages according to various embodiments. The processing unit(s) 512 retrieve instructions to be executed and data to be processed from these various storage units to perform the processes of some embodiments.

Abstract

A system and machine-implemented method for automatically generating an email filter based on social networking groups, including receiving an indication of one or more social groups associated with a user, wherein each of the one or more social groups is associated with the user's account in a social networking service, determining, using the one or more computing devices, one or more contacts associated with each of the one or more social groups associated with the user at the social networking service, determining, using the one or more computing devices, one or more email addresses corresponding to each of the one or more contacts, generating an email filter according to the one or more email addresses and applying the generated email filter to an email list of a user.

Description

technical field [0001] The subject disclosure relates generally to electronic mail ("email") management, and more specifically to filters for managing email lists. Background technique [0002] Email services provide users with filtering mechanisms for email and other messages. For example, a user can select multiple email addresses such that email messages received from those email addresses will be treated differently (eg, filtered out or kept in) from other email messages. However, it is often cumbersome to include each individual email address in the filter, especially if a large number of intended senders / recipients are expected to be included in the email filter and / or when the expected sender / recipient A person has more than one email address. In such an instance, the user would have to know each email address used by the intended sender / recipient, and each email address would have to be added to the filter individually. [0003] Furthermore, when a user intends to...
