  • Patent number: 11902234
    Abstract: A method for prohibiting email content propagation that receives, at a server, an email message. At the server, at least one email address associated with the email message which is designated not to receive a content of the email message is identified. At the server, the email message is modified by selectively removing a content of the email message to be conveyed to the at least one email address. The server conveys the modified email message to the at least one email address. The server conveys the email message to one or more recipient email addresses except the at least one email address. Consequently, the server has sent a submitted message to multiple email addresses, while modifying the content sent to a subset of the addresses that received the email message.

  • Patent number: 11223589
    Abstract: A proximity policy associated with an electronic message. e.g., an email, can be used to identify prohibited nodes in a social network data structure. The prohibited nodes are of users that are to not receive the electronic message. A graphical user interface element can be used to select a value from a range of values, where the value identifies nodes in the social network as the prohibited nodes.

  • Patent number: 10054452
    Abstract: Personalizing travel route planning based on past actual user travel behavior and reasons that the user deviated from planned routings. The route planning algorithm is revised based on analysis of user input related to a deviation from a planned routing. If a new trip in the planning stage entails considerations similar to those that caused the user's deviation on a previous trip, then the revised route planning algorithm can take these considerations into account when planning the route for the new trip. Changes in route planning may apply when the user: (i) plans to make a trip similar to a previous trip when the deviation occurred; (ii) plans to make a different trip, but the trip entails considerations that lead to the deviation on the prior trip; (iii) is using the same vehicle as for the previous trip with the deviation; and/or (iv) is using a different vehicle.

  • Patent number: 9092759
    Abstract: A message header of an email message can be identified. The message header can comprise of an exemption field which specifies one or more email addresses that is prohibited from receiving the email message. The sending email address can be associated with a sender node and the one or more email addresses is associated with a prohibited node. The sender node and the prohibited node can be arbitrarily linked within a network that is a social structure comprising of one or more individuals and organizations which can be connected by one or more specific type of interdependency. The network can be modeled as a graph which can be a mathematical structure modeling pairwise relations between nodes and edges. The email message can be conveyed to multiple email addresses except the one or more email address associated with the exemption field.

  • Patent number: 9047588
    Abstract: Allowing a message, composed as an instant message, to be transmitted using an e-mail protocol and displayed at a recipient as an instant message or an e-mail is disclosed. In particular, on a message originator, one embodiment includes, composing a message as an instant message, and transmitting the message using an e-mail protocol. On a message recipient, one embodiment includes, receiving a message in an e-mail protocol, determining whether the message is to be displayed as an instant message, and in the case that the message is to be displayed as an instant message, displaying the message as an instant message at the recipient, otherwise displaying the message as an e-mail at the recipient. Functionality of the originator and recipient sides can be combined into a single client.

  • Patent number: 8095883
    Abstract: A system for indicating a default value for a property of a selected object to a user within a graphical user interface (GUI) of a program module is provided. The property has a value and a state that can be set. The state of the property is one of a default state and a user-set state. The value of the property is assigned the default value when the state is the default state. The system comprises a GUI control having first, second, and third interface elements. The first interface element is configured to indicate the value of the property to the user. The second interface element is configured to indicate the state of the property to the user. The third interface element is configured to indicate the default value for the property to the user when the state of the property is the user-set state.

  • Patent number: 7610187
    Abstract: A method, system and apparatus for processing multi-lingual syndicated content feeds is provided. In an embodiment of the invention, the system can include a syndicated content aggregator configured for coupling to multiple syndicated content subscribers and syndicated content feed sources. The system also can include a translation server coupled to the aggregator. The translation server can include logic to translate syndicated content feeds, such as RSS or Atom feeds, which are received from the feed sources into target lingual languages specified by the aggregator. In this regard, the translation server can include a machine translator configured to translate content from a first lingual language to a second lingual language.
