Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention address deficiencies of the art in respect to e-mail processing and provide a novel and non-obvious method, system and computer program product for a unified presentation of scattered e-mail data. In one embodiment of the invention, a unified presentation of scattered e-mail data method can include selecting an e-mail in an e-mail list of an e-mail client, locating scattered data for the selected e-mail, and presenting the scattered data in a pop-up window proximate to the selected e-mail. In one aspect of the embodiment, selecting an e-mail in an e-mail list of an e-mail client can include selecting an icon adjacent to an e-mail in an e-mail list of an e-mail client. In another aspect of the embodiment, selecting an e-mail in an e-mail list of an e-mail client can include mousing over an icon adjacent to an e-mail in an e-mail list of an e-mail client.

Abstract: A system for selective sharing of flagged information in a group chat (i.e. instant messaging) that generates a user interface object enabling a flag setting participant to indicate which of the other chat participants can see a visible flag they are setting in association with selected content of the chat session. The flag is then visible only to those indicated other participants, both during the chat session and within copies of the saved chat transcript. A user interface object (e.g. a context window) provides chat participants with the ability to conveniently identify information about individual flags in the chat session, such as the identity of the participant that set a flag, when the flag was created, the priority associated with the flag, and/or other information. The system further enables chat participants to filter the contents of a chat transcript, so that only a subset of the chat transcript is displayed, based on flags contained in the transcript.

Abstract: A system for flagging content in a chat session and providing enhancements in a transcript window. The system allows a user to set visible flags at the starting pointing of lines in the transcript area of the live chat window. Once one or more visual flags has been set in the transcript area, they are visually displayed in the transcript area visually indicating the lines they are associated with, and the live chat window is further modified to enable the user to navigate to the flags. When a flag is set, it is also added to a visually displayed list of such flags. The visually displayed flag list allows the user to select a flag and quickly navigate to a particular area within the chat transcript area that the user has deemed to be relatively significant. The flag list may be displayed at the top of the chat transcript within the transcript area itself, as a horizontal list of hot links, or in a new display region added to the live chat window, or in some other way.
