Problems solved by technology

Callouts however act like folders and have the same issues as the one above
Callouts are not ephemeral, have sharing limitations, and can clog email client UIs and mailbox histories
Additionally, traditional email clients are not configured to automatically bundle content on behalf of the user in a folder instance or callout instance

Embodiment Construction

[0012] A non-limiting example of the present disclosure describes automatically bundling content on behalf of a user. As an example, an exemplary content bundle may be an email bundle associated with an email service. The exemplary content bundles provide an alternative solution to the folder / callout solution, wherein the content bundles are ephemeral in nature and can be shared with other content (e.g., email content) of the application / service (e.g., email service). ) are presented together. While the examples herein relate to automatically bundling content on behalf of a user, it should be understood that the examples described herein can be extended to any aspect of managing bundled content, including but not limited to: user creation of content bundles, sharing of bundled content, Enhanced content (including bundled content) search and filtering capabilities, and generation of rich content previews for content bundles. Other aspects related to managing bundled content m...

Abstract

Non-limiting examples describe automated bundling of content on behalf of a user by an application / service. As an example, a bundle of content may be a bundle of emails created on behalf of a user by an email service. Email data associated with a user account of an email service may be accessed. The email data may be evaluated by applying a bundle generation model that evaluates the emails for bundling associations. An exemplary bundle generation model may evaluate the email data based on: user signal data from actions pertaining to categorization of specific emails, content and metadata corresponding with the email data, and server side metric analysis of activity corresponding with the user account. A bundle of emails may be automatically generated based on an evaluation result from applying the bundle generation model. The bundle of emails may be transmitted for display in a mailbox of the user account.

Description

Background technique [0001] Currently, the only mechanisms available to users to group similar content together are through folder creation or through callout creation. In one example, conventional email clients allow users to create folders and move content into folders. However, this folder resides outside the inbox, reducing the importance of said message. Additionally, the folder structure is permanent and remains a fixture in the email client's navigation pane, clogging up the user's mailbox. Folder structures can also complicate the user interface of an email client, especially when the user accesses the email client from a mobile device with limited display space. Also, there is a limitation with a folder structure when there are other users with whom you want to share content. With a folder structure, other users need to manually access the folders and do not receive automatic content updates. In an alternate example, a user may create callouts for content manageme...
