A method and system for detecting and grouping users in electronic communications includes detecting electronic communications by a user using a device having a computer to communicate with other users. A number of message recipients are identified in the electronic communications. The message recipients are placed in a social graph based on a criteria such as the frequency of the electronic communications between the user and the message recipients. A group is created of the message recipients based on the social graph, and the group is presented to the user. The group can be accessed by the user for routing future electronic communications.
