  • Method and system for remotely sensing the file formats processed by an e-mail client
    Patent number: 8200759
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the processing of E-mail messages over a telecommunications network. More particularly, the present invention relates to the detection and monitoring of file formats which can be processed and displayed at an E-mail client. Specific embodiments include, sending an E-mail message to the E-mail client, determining at the E-mail client a file format that the E-mail client can process and display, and indicating to the E-mail sensor server the file format that the E-mail client can process and display. Once the file format is determined, subsequent E-mail messages maybe of the same file format. The file format could be hyper text mark up language (HTML) statements or dynamic HTML(DHTML) statements or Java applets. The method may also include monitoring the status of the E-mail message received at the E-mail client.

  • Methods and apparatus for categorizing failure messages that result from email messages
    Patent number: 7536439
    Abstract: Techniques for classifying failure messages received from email messages that are sent are provided. A plurality of rules are created that are used to classify a plurality of failure types for email messages. Email messages are sent to an email address associated with an Internet service provider. When an email message fails, a failure message is determined. A rule that applies to the failure message is then determined and based on the rule, a failure type associated with the rule is determined. Once a failure type is determined, an action may be performed based on the failure type. For example, the email address associated with the email message may be marked as invalid.
