Systems and methods for displaying electronic messages are disclosed. In one aspect, a method is performed at a computing device. The method includes: (1) receiving a plurality of electronic messages; (2) assigning a first subset of the messages to a predefined group category based on a set of content-based clustering rules and content in respective bodies of the messages; (3) concurrently displaying a second subset of the messages and a cluster graphic corresponding to the predefined group category, where the cluster graphic includes a label that describes the predefined group category; (4) while concurrently displaying the second subset of electronic messages and the cluster graphic, receiving user selection of the cluster graphic; and (5) in response, displaying a plurality of messages in the predefined group category, including displaying at least one message from the first subset of messages.

Systems and methods for displaying labels in a clustering in-box environment

Systems and methods for displaying electronic messages are disclosed. In some embodiments, a method includes, at a computing device, concurrently displaying (i) a user interface object that represents a group of messages and (ii) one or more first indicia of a number of messages that have a predefined display status, in the group of messages while foregoing displaying more than one message of the group of messages. The method also includes receiving a selection of the user interface object; and, in response to receiving the selection of the user interface object, displaying messages in the group of messages. The method further includes, in accordance with displaying the messages in the group of messages, modifying the one or more displayed first indicia of the number of messages, which have the predefined display status, in the group of messages.

System and methods are provided for performing a method, for instance, at a computer system having one or more processors and memory storing one or more programs for execution by the one or more processors. In the method a search query is received. The search query identifies a message category from among a plurality of message categories. Each respective message category in the plurality of message categories corresponds to an electronic message display format in a plurality of electronic message display formats. Responsive to the search query, a search result comprising one or more electronic messages satisfying the search query is identified. The one or more electronic messages are prepared for display by formatting for display a first electronic message, in the one or more electronic messages, associated with the first message category. The formatting makes use of the electronic message display format that corresponds to the first message category.

Custom electronic message presentation based on electronic message category

Systems and methods for clustering electronic messages are disclosed. In some implementations, a method includes, at a computing device, responsive to a determination that a message body of a first electronic message satisfies a set of content-based clustering rules associated with a first message cluster, assigning the electronic message to the message cluster. A cluster graphic is displayed for the message cluster. The cluster graphic is characterized by (a) a first state in which messages in the message cluster are individually depicted and (b) a second state, which replaces the first state upon user input and collectively represents a plurality of messages in the message cluster. Each message in the message cluster is either (i) addressed at least to a first recipient or (ii) originates from the first recipient.

Systems and methods for clustering electronic messages

System and methods are provided for receiving selection, by a user, of a subset of message clusters in a plurality of message clusters. Each message cluster is associated with a corresponding set of clustering rules. Each respective electronic message, addressed to and/or from the user, in a plurality of electronic messages is assigned to one or more of the clusters in the subset of clusters in accordance with the sets of clustering rules associated with the subset of clusters. The set of clustering rules for a first cluster in the subset of clusters (i) prevents some messages in the plurality of messages from being assigned to the first cluster and (ii) assigns messages to the first cluster without regard to content relatedness between messages in the plurality of messages and messages already in the first cluster. Messages in the first cluster are formatted for display as a single cluster graphic.

Systems and methods for clustering electronic messages are disclosed. In some implementations, a method includes, at a computing device, analyzing content of a first incoming electronic message against a first set of content-based clustering rules associated with a first message cluster, without regard to content relatedness between the first incoming message and any messages previously assigned to the first message cluster. In some implementations, the method further includes, responsive to a determination that the first incoming electronic message satisfies the first set of content-based clustering rules: assigning the first incoming electronic message to the first message cluster, and formatting for display, in an electronic message folder, electronic messages in the first message cluster as a first single cluster graphic.
