An information distribution system comprising one or more transceivers in communication with a computing system, the one or more transceivers are also in communication with at least one server. The at least one server configured to receive a communication message. The at least one server further configured to identify an element, in a communication text portion, corresponding to a predefined category based on an element classification model. The at least one server further configured to identify additional information associated with the predefined category and provide the identified information to an application on the computing system. The application on the computing system is pre-specified for utilization of information associated with the predefined category.

Customer-identifying email addresses to enable a medium of communication that supports many service providers

A system comprising one or more transceivers in communication with a vehicle computing system, the one or more transceivers are also in communication with at least one server. The at least one server is configured to receive an email including a subscriber identification and data formatted by a service provider. The at least one server is further configured to parse the email to retrieve the data formatted by the service provider and identify information usable by the vehicle computing system in the retrieved data. The at least one server is further configured to extract the identified information and transmit the information for communication to the vehicle computing system.

A navigation information distribution system comprising one or more servers in communication with each other to parse embedded data attached to an electronic mail message. The servers are configured to receive an email including destination data associated with subscriber identification. Before parsing the embedded data, the server may confirm the subscriber identification included in the email is a valid active subscriber. After confirmation of the subscriber's status, the servers parse the destination data from the email and determine a location based on the destination data using a map database. After parsing, the server may receive a request for the location from a nomadic wireless device for downloading. The request from the nomadic wireless device may include the subscriber identification to associate the stored data on the server with the subscriber. The server may transmit the location for communication to the nomadic wireless device.
