Abstract
A method and system for processing incoming messages. An incoming message is scanned, wherein the incoming message is an email message sent by a sender. One or more resource links in the scanned incoming message are detected, wherein the one or more resource links are in the sender's email signature in the email message. In response to detecting the one or more resource links in the scanned incoming message, it is determined that users of the computer are likely to request a content of the detected one or more resource links, based at least on: a type of the one or more detected resource links, a type of network to which the computer is connected, and a determination that the detected one or more resource links are pointing to one or more files and are not pointing to a corporate website.
