Abstract: The Email Atomicity Dissection Method disclosed herein suggests an alternate and significantly more advanced view of a collection of Emails. Advancing the basic concept and usage of chronologically ordered emails, this method allows the emails in a multi-dimensional manner. There are two stages in applying this method of building conversations. The first is analyzing the existing emails to build a database of candidates for email conversations and recording the attributes of each email for future matching. The next stage is the ability to analyze incoming emails in real-time.

Abstract: The Bio-Signature Association approach disclosed herein addresses the above stated needs by providing a method and computer software component for automatically and intelligently managing the inbox based on the ever-changing behavior of the user. Theoretically, Emails should be treated as an event where an action may be taken or initiation of an action. When the user casually acts upon an inbox or an individual email, there is unique pattern associated with such operations. For example, one might view emails from families first followed by colleagues or so-call “internal” fellow workers. Naturally, pushed advertisements such as special interest groups and vendors may be towards the end. These viewing habits and patterns are considered as unique “signature” for each user in this invention.
