Abstract: A computer implemented method includes receiving a start date and an end date specifying a future absence or away-from-work time period for a user, generating an away from office communication specifying the away-from-work time period, retrieving via the computer a list of collaborators based on frequency and duration of recent interactions with the user, receiving via the computer a selection of collaborators from the list, identifying meetings involving the user during the away-from-work time period, generating via the computer a list of user viewable items for the user to complete prior to the away-from-work time period, and generating via the computer a list of items for the user to attend to upon return from the away-from-work time period for presentation to the user upon return.

Abstract: In non-limiting examples of the present disclosure, systems, methods and devices for surfacing email suggestions are presented. A first user account associated with a composer of an email may be identified. Core working hour and a time zone associated with that first user account may be determined. One or more recipient user accounts included in the email may be identified. Core working hours and a time zone associated with the recipient user accounts may be identified. If more than a threshold number, percentage, and/or ratio of the recipient users is not currently in core working hours when the email is being drafted/sent, a suggestion may be surfaced in association with the email to send the email at a later time when more recipient users are in their core working hours.

Abstract: A system and method for computing a metric indicating a user operation of an application is described. The system accesses online activity data of a user operation of the application. The system filters the online activity data based on a preset time range. An after-hours activity score is calculated based on a type of activity or a duration of an activity from the filtered online activity data, and a weight assigned to the type of activity or the duration of the activity. The system computes an after-hours metric based on the after-hours activity score. A configuration setting for the application based on the after-hours metric is applied to the application.

Abstract: A method may include receiving an indication that a user is composing an electronic message in a client application; in response to the indication, determining that a time of the electronic message is being composed is within a trigger time period; based on the determination: accessing a frequency of electronic message composition during the trigger time period for the user; and accessing a frequency of response messages, during the trigger time period, transmitted to the user in response to messages composed by the user during the trigger time period; and when the frequency of message composition is above a first threshold and the frequency of response messages is above a second threshold: presenting a notification within the client application, the notification including an option to consider adding an addendum to the electronic message.
