Abstract: A mobile device stores message information for a plurality of messages in memory. Each message includes at least one correspondent address and conversation text with the at least one correspondent address, as well as metadata comprising an identifier for uniquely identifying the message at a server. When a size of the message information has reached a first predetermined limit, the mobile device deletes at least portions of the conversation text of some of the messages while retaining storage of the correspondent addresses and the metadata thereof. When the size of the message information has reached a second predetermined limit which is greater than the first predetermined limit, the mobile device deletes the correspondent addresses and the metadata associated with the messages having the deleted conversation texts.

Abstract: A mobile device receives, via a wireless network, a plurality of messages and stores message information of the messages in memory. Each message includes at least one correspondent address and conversation text with the at least one correspondent address, as well as metadata comprising an identifier for uniquely identifying the message at a server. The mobile device identifies whether a size of the message information has reached a first predetermined limit of the memory. Based on identifying that the size of the message information has reached the first predetermined limit, the mobile device deletes from the memory, automatically without user intervention, at least portions of the conversation text of some of the messages while retaining storage of the correspondent addresses and the metadata thereof. The mobile device also identifies whether the size of the message information has reached a second predetermined limit of the memory, which is greater than the first predetermined limit.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for efficiently managing the storage of e-mail message information for a mobile station are described. In one illustrative example, a plurality of e-mail messages are received by the mobile station through a wireless network and stored in memory. If a size of the e-mail messages reaches a predetermined limit of the memory, e-mail message bodies of some of the e-mail messages (e.g. relatively “old” e-mails) are automatically deleted from the memory while e-mail message headers of the e-mail messages are retained. E-mail message headers of e-mail messages having deleted e-mail message bodies may still be visually displayed in a list at the mobile station. Subsequently, if a user selection of one of these e-mail messages in the list is identified, an e-mail message body of the e-mail message is requested by the mobile station and received from a server through the wireless network.
